That's not entirely true --- you just have to call session_start() before any HTML output is sent to the browser, for session_start() must be able to set the session cookie (if using session cookies that it). The very first example here illustrates this: http://php.net/session-start There the session_start() is called, then some output is sent to the browser, and later the three session variables 'favcolor', 'animal', and 'time' is set. The session variables can be set and updated at any time because this only associates data with the session on the server side. -- Martin Geisler My GnuPG Key: 0xF7F6B57B PHP EXIF Library | PhpWeather | PhpShell http://pel.sf.net/ | http://phpweather.net/ | http://gimpster.com/ Read/write EXIF data | Show current weather | A shell in a browser
