I have this IF statement:

if (isset($_SESSION['COMPANY_CODE'])) {
$COMPANY_CODE = $_SESSION['COMPANY_CODE'];
} else {
$query = parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
$COMPANY_CODE = $app;
$_SESSION['COMPANY_CODE'] = $COMPANY_CODE;
}

It currently does the reverse of what I need it to do. This block gives
precedence to the session variable. If the session variable exists, the
passed parameter is ignored.

I need to give precedence to the passed parameter. If the parameter is
passed (either with a value or empty), I need to modify the session variable
accordingly. If the parameter is not passed, I want to leave the session
variable untouched.

As I understand it, checking for isset($app) will not tell the difference
between http://www.somewhere.com/?app= and http://www.somewhere.com .
