Re: Using and Echoing Session Variables

you need to call session_start() on every page, yes. Also, if you're bored with assigning values like that, and you're sure you're not overwriting anything, you could try: $_SESSION = array('UserId'=>'userid', 'Authorised'=>'yes','etc'=>'blah'); However, remember that you don't need to REassign values to $_SESSION to keep them stored over multiple visits! :) hope that helps, - Tul Harlequin wrote:

Hi everyone. A few quick pointers if you have time... I've created a session, easy enough: <?php session_start(); ?> I've created variables: $_SESSION['UserID'] = UserID; $_SESSION['Authorised']="yes"; $_SESSION['logname'] = $logname; When a user clicks a link to a test page I created the following doesn't work though: echo $_SESSION["UserID"]; Do I need to use the (again): <?php session_start(); ?> ??? Confused...! Also - rather than list the session variables the way I am new line session, new line session etc. is there a better way...?
