Help with global refernces $mjUser = &$_SESSION['mjUser']

[wizhippo]

Why can't i do this?

function foo() {
globa $mjUser;

$mjUser = &$_SESSION['mjUser'] = array();

};

i have tried it with $mjUser = $_SESSION['mjUser'] = array(); but the session variable is not updated or visable out of the function

Interesting.... what the heck are you trying to do?

I just want $mjUser to be an alias to $_SESSION['mjUser'] wich is an array.

I think it has something to do whith globals as referneces

by the way $mjUser is global
