Sessions not working

[bough]

Hello

I am having problems gettin my sessions to work, and have tried the basic scropt below to tray and resolve it. Is the code below incorrect?

<?php
session_start();

if(isset($SESSION['views']))
$SESSION['views'] = $SESSION['views']+ 1;
else
$SESSION['views'] = 1;

echo "views = ". $_SESSION['views'];
?>
<a href="view.php">test</a>

Any advice would be fully appreciated

It looks ok to me. What does it produce?

The only thing I can see is that you do not put brackets around your if / else actions, which is not required, but advisable, as it keeps your coding consistent

Hi there,

always try to use "print_r($_SESSION);" when debugging

Also, if you're having session problems, try echo'ing out [man]session_id/man on each page load.

If all is well, you should get the same id each time until you close your browser window. If you are getting a newly generated id on each page load, your session ID's aren't being properly propogated, and you should verify that "session.use_cookies" is set to "On".
