You can serialize it easily, then unserialize it to get it back to an array:

$result=serialize(Users.LoggedInUsers());
header('Location: http://localhost/Campus/Users.php?id='.$result.'');

If you unserialize untrusted input from a URL, be certain to validate the entire contents of the array. – Michael Berkowski Mar 10 '12 at 02:18
It is showing following error Warning: Header may not contain more than a single header, new line detected on Users.php i did $booksArr = $_GET['id']; $result=unserialize(urldecode($booksArr)); – abc Mar 10 '12 at 02:20
