I'm trying to create an image uploading website. In this, when a user logs in, I set a $_SESSION['id'] variable in php. Now, I wish to check if $_SESSION['id'] is set in my javascript file (general.js) in order to carry out certain functions. How should I go about doing it?

<?php $session_value=(isset($_SESSION['id']))?$_SESSION['id']:''; ?>

    <html>

    <head>

    <script type=text/javascript>

    var myvar='<?php echo $session_value;?>';

    </script>

    <script type=text/javascript src=general.js></script>

    </head>

    <body>



    </body>

    </html>

In above code snippet I have initialized global variable myvar with value stored into php session variable into script file before general.js file is referenced in script.It will be accessible in general.js file
