session help

Hi,

I have a problem with the session var.

On one page I have this code:
session_start();
if (empty($SESSION['cart'])){
$SESSION['cart'] = 1;
}

Now when I go to a different page and try to see it (echo $_session['cart']), the var is empty...
What is that I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Assaf

You need session_start() on the other page and $_SESSION needs to be in caps.

session_start();
echo $_SESSION['cart'];

Not to be a syntax lawyer, but constants like $_SESSION do not have to be capitalized. It is just a useful convention.

My apologies esukf. $_SESSION is not a constant, and it does need to be capitalized.

I guess I've had too many dealings with the lawyers recently.
