Hi
I've asked loads of session questions recently and have got some good help.
Let me try to help someone else!
You must put session_start() at he top of every page you wish to access your session vars.
Also be careful if you are using forms and you want the user to be able to go back and enter new values for the same vars.
It tends to get confused and the original var is the only one it recognizes!
You can solve the problem like this.
<?
page 1
session_start();
session_register("var");
// USER PUTS IN NAME
?>
<?
page 2
session_start();
$ses_var=$var
?>
You can then access $sesvar on any page!
