Re: Register globals and ini_set

I'm having a serious pain with globals.. maybe someone can help. My major client moved her service from one server to another, and with it, PHP went from 4.1 to 4.2+. Register Globals was turned off, and when everything failed to work, tech support turned them back on via .htaccess. I'm planning to update the hundreds of scripts over the next weekend or so, but for right now, my $_SESSION['variable'] seem to be failing sporatically. It doesn't seem to make a difference whether I have session_start() at the top of the file or not. Shouldn't something like this work? <?php session_start(); $my_local=$_SESSION['global_var']; echo($my_local); ?> where $global_var is set in one file and then used in another?
