Updated by: derick
Reported By: brubla@seznam.cz
Old Status: Open
Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Session related
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: 4.1.1
New Comment:
1. Using global in a non-function scope doesn't make any sense.
2. When doing 'global $counter' you're setting a reference from
$counter to $GLOBALS['counter'] and thus breaking the reference to the
session hashes
Not a bug (but rather a bug in older versions).
Making this bogus.

Global variable will be registered in session only first time. When you
will be refreshing page with following code, it will count only to 2.
<?php
session_start();
global $counter; //when you remove this row, all will work properly
session_register("counter");
$counter++;
echo $counter;
?>
When you remove row with "global $counter;" page will count to 3, 4,
5...
Both variants of code works properly with PHP 4.0.6 (on Windows 2000).
