pass form value to session

[russmichell]

Good day to you:

I would like to have the value of a text-field passed through to future scripts by means of a php4 session.

How on earth does one do this? I'm now at the banging-head-against wall stage.

Any guideance will be very much appreciated.

In the form page:

<form action="action.php" method=post>
<input type=text name=somefield>
<input type=submit name=submit>
</form>

action.php:

<?
session_start();
session_register('somefield');
?>

$somefield will be available in all subsequent PHP pages that utilize sessions.
