In PHP 4.2, I think, you have to use $_SESSION["foo"] = "bar" instead of session_register("foo") if register_globals is off. This is afaicr fixed in 4.3.

You have already registered it, just set $valid_user = 'something'. I might not remember everything completely, but the manual will at least give you the correct answers if mine are wrong. ;-) -- --Fredrik In an organization, each person rises to the level of his own incompetency -- The Peter Principle
