session values not being saved

[Erkilite]

I start a session and save a value to it

session_start();
$_SESSION['language_code'] = 'en-us';

then when i try to retrieve it on the next page

$language_code = $_SESSION['language_code'];

it is empty.

The code works perfect on my Win2k/Apache2/MySQL test server, but when I load it to my host it doesn't work, any ideas?

maybe a dwngraded version of php? you have session_start on each page

From your code ex on the 1st post, you are setting the session correctly.

Do you have the session_start(); at the top of each page that is to use the session?

yeah, they work fine on my local server but when i upload them to my host they stop working. i have checked and the pages all have the correct/same session id but no values are being set.
