It's figuring out when a session variable will accept initialization and what enables and/or prevents it from doing so. I would like to be able to initialize a session variable on one page, call a second page, have the code on the second page process some information and reinitialize the session variable to another value so that new value could be available to be used on the first page. A lot like having a function return a value. The problem is that the session variable won't accept a new value just any old where in the code on the second page (apparently.)
