Yeah, that is why in my previous answer to his question I told him to use it. But then the response was to ask "Well, if I close my session, how do I access it on the next page." Since I had pointed him to the manual section on sessions in my previous post this sort of caused me to throw my hands up in despair and give a "RTFM" manual response. I don't really have time to waste trying to explain sessions to someone who won't do basic research for themselves, as I am sure you don't either. I don't mind sharing the knowledge that I have gained from years of programming in PHP with others, I know how to do a lot of stuff that other people don't (such as use sessions, apparently), but it does get exasperating when someone asks something that they could have learned themselves from reading a page you sent them to, especially when you just pointed them to the page not 5 minutes before.
