Re: 4.2.3 session login problem...

Chances are your problem lies with Register Globals. In php 4.1.x this defaulted to on, which meant that all session variables were access as $mysessionthingy However, in php 4.2.x and higher, the way sessions work has changed dramatically. However, the old methods (using session_start and so on) are still supported IF you set register_globals to ON in your php.ini file. For more infomation, please go to the php site and look up sessions. I personally believe the new method is a lot better than the older methods, and suggest you consider updating!
