session_start(); $s = SID; //get Session ID echo "<a href=\"page.php?$s\">Page</a>"; Mostly for passing the session as a GET variable to another page, like for anything from authentication tokens to form data etc... Of course for form data it would probably be better to encapsulate the session veriables within the form. -B Alain Roger wrote:
