Even more interesting is that when a user presses the back button all the way back to the page that initially started the session, a new session is started. As such, all information previously stored will be lost. What I did to fix my problem (and I think it'll fix yours) is that I start the session on a page the user cannot go "back" to. To do that, the only code in the file is: <? session_start(); header( "location: /home_page.php" ); exit(); ?> Chris
