从count变量创建php $ _SESSION

Question

I am trying to create a $_SESSION from example code count($result). I have decalred the variable like thus:

$result = array();
$result[] = $boxdest;

This is working fine on the page where I run it but I need to pass the value to a page to use in php mail() function. I have tried

$_SESSION['result'] = $result;

But all I get is Resource id #40. How do I pass this variable to another page. Full code example here: http://sandbox.onlinephpfunctions.com/code/ba0a34774e30c93edfdf02f531bb199c681021e3 Many thanks

This is more of a critique of the code rather than a solution to the problem:

$_SESSION['result'] = []; //Clear it in case there's an old value here.
if (isset($_POST['boxdest']) && is_array($_POST['boxdest']) && !empty($_POST['boxdest'])) { //Merged condition
    $destroydata = explode(',', $_POST['boxdest'][0]); //Split was deprecated
    $result = array_filter($destroydata);
    if (empty($result) { 
           $boxdesterror = '<span style="font-weight:bold;font-size:12px;color: #ff0000;">' . 'BOX DESTRUCTION ERROR! ' . '</span>' . '<span style="font-weight:normal;color: #000;background-color:#ffa;">' . 'You must enter a box for destruction' . '</span>';
           echo "<script language=\"JavaScript\">
";
           echo 'alert("BOX DESTRUCTION ERROR:
You must enter a box for destruction.");';
           echo "</script>";
           echo $boxdesterror;
    } else {
        echo 'You wish to destroy ' . count($result) . ' box(es): ' . '<div style="word-wrap:break-word;white-space: pre-wrap;overflow:auto !important;height: 100px; width: 250px; border: 1px solid #666; background-color: #fff; padding: 4px;">' . '<span style="font-weight:bold;color: #000;">' . implode(', ', $boxdest) . '</span>' . '</div>' . '<p />';

        $_SESSION['result'] = $result; //Did you really need both?
        $flag = 1;
     }
}

This should be the same results. I don't see why a resource would pop up from nowhere though.
