According to the script you've posted, you're never putting the session count into $count, and never putting $count back into the session data. You seem to be assuming that $_SESSION['count'] and $count are the same variable, they are not, and incrementing $counter does not affect the session variable. What you should be doing is grabbing the session value into a new variable, incrementing it, and then putting it back. <? session_start(); if(session_is_registered('count')) { $myCTR = $_SESSION['count']; } else { session_register('count'); } $myCTR ++; $_SESSION['count'] = $myCTR; ?> <HTML headers> <? echo "<p>You have been to this web page {$myCTR} times.</p>"; ?> -- S.
