Re: Help with session variables

Instead of register, set it up like a normal variable. Here's an examlple going by your code: Page1..... session_start(); $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['step'] = 1; header("Location: page_A.php"); Page A.... session_start(); $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['step'] = 2; header("Location: page_B.php"); Page B..... session_start(); echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['step']; // You can echo it out straight, don't need to extract it Hope it works! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Manuel Ochoa" <manuel@ochoa-usa.com> To: "PHP General" <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 1:12 AM Subject: [PHP] Help with session variables > > I'm running PHP 4.3 on a Windows .net server with Apache 2.
