I played around with the echo session_id(); and found it was not getting into the scope of the included file. So I removed all session_register() and replaced it with $_SESSION['varname'] = 'value'; and it solve the problem. Your not suppose (not recommended) to use session_register() anways, right? Thanks for the help!
