Hi gang: As strange as it may seem, but when session variables are passed to another page (i.e., used) you cannot extract ALL OF THEM using a loop when the variable names you are using are the same as the SESSION index's names. In other words, you cannot do this: for ($i = 0; $i < $num_users; $i++) { $last_name = $_SESSION['last_name'][$i]; $first_name = $_SESSION['first_name'][$i]; echo("<p>$last_name $first_name</p>"); } But you can do this: for ($i = 0; $i < $num_users; $i++) { $last = $_SESSION['last_name'][$i]; $first = $_SESSION['first_name'][$i]; echo("<p>$last $first</p>"); } See the difference? This was a crazy one. Now, someone show me where that is documented? Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
