Hi gang: Apparently, there's something going on here that I don't understand -- this happens far too often these days. Here's a print_r($_SESSION); of the session arrays I'm using:
    [user_id] => Array
        (
            [0] => 6156
            [1] => 7030
            [2] => 656
        )
    [first_name] => Array
        (
            [0] => Diane
            [1] => Fred
            [2] => Helen
        )
    [last_name] => Array
        (
            [0] => Cable
            [1] => Cago
            [2] => Cahalan
The following is how I tried to access the data contained in the $_SESSION arrays: $num_users = count($_SESSION['user_id']); for ($i = 0; $i < $num_users; $i++) { $last_name = $_SESSION['last_name'][$i]; $first_name = $_SESSION['first_name'][$i]; echo("<p>$last_name, $first_name</p>"); } The only thing that came out correct was the first echo. The remaining echos had no values for $first_name or $last_name. What's happening here? Cheers, tedd PS: I'm open to other suggestions as to how to do this. -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
