$_SESSION

I've got a question that I'm sure has a simple answer. Why aren't my session objects transferring across more than one page? I'm calling a session object that was set in the page prior; $_SESSION['mysessionvar'] = $_REQUEST['mytxtobj']; I then assign a variable that value; $myvar = $_SESSION['mysessionvar']; echo $myvar; This displays like I expected. However when I go to the next page and want to display this var again I get either an Undefined index or variable. According to the docs $_SESSION[] is now global and this is the way of setting and retrieving session objects, right? I have tried calling that session object again but it's empty and so is the variable. I thought that the session would stay open until I close the browser and I could return those values any time I wanted. Am I missing something? alex hogan ****************************************************************** The contents of this e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
