Re: calling session_start()

session_start() has to be called on every page where you want to use the session, before you try referencing it - you also have to call it before outputting anything else (you must be doing it after and this is what is causing your error) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Børge Strand" <borges@ifi.uio.no> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 6:12 PM Subject: [PHP] calling session_start() > > Hi All, > > When does session_start() have to be called?
