Re: session data missing

ok. now I get it. first set the session-variables like any other: $foo = 'bar'; then register them in the sessionfile: session_register('foo'); that makes sense. But it's not at all what the manual says. I guess my php version has passed its expiration date. thanks for the help, anyway. It seems to be working the way I wanted it to.
