I have two pages page1.php and page2.php here is the code for page1.php: <? session_start(); if (session_is_registered != 1) { session_register("FailedLogins"); $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["FailedLogins"] = 0; } if ($HTTP_SESSION_VARS["FailedLogins"] > 3) { echo "you have made " . $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["FailedLogins"] . " login attempts"; } ?> <a href="page2.php">Simulate a failed login</a> here is the code for page2.php: <? session_start(); session_register("FailedLogins"); $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["FailedLogins"]++; Header("Location: page1.php"); ?> Ok. so after i click on my link to simulate failed logins 3 times, I should see the number of failed logins. It seems like the gist of the problems is that different pages can't seem to modify the same session variables. any ideas? thanks everyone. regards, Johnny Nguyen
