session management

Hi, I hope i get loads of mails, saying that iÍ am soooo stupid. I'm running PHP 4.0.3 on a WIN2000 system under IIS5. I copied a simple script from a tutorial: <? session_start(); session_register("SESION"); if (! isset($SESION)) { $SESION["count"] = 1; echo "<li>Counter initialized, please reload this page to see it increment"; } else { echo "<li>Waking up session $PHPSESSID"; $SESION["count"]++; } echo "<li>The counter is now $SESION[count]"; ?> The only problem is that every time I reload the page an new session gets opened, so that I have one ssession for every reload-hit. Probably some change in my php.ini, i guess.[ [Session] session.save_handler = files ; handler used to store/retrieve data session.save_path = c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\session ; argument passed to save_handler ; in the case of files, this is the ; path where data files are stored session.use_cookies = 1 ; whether to use cookies session.name = PHPSESSID ; name of the session ; is used as cookie name session.auto_start = 0 ; initialize session on request startup session.cookie_lifetime = 0 ; lifetime in seconds of cookie ; or if 0, until browser is restarted session.cookie_path = ; the path the cookie is valid for session.cookie_domain = ; the domain the cookie is valid for session.serialize_handler = php ; handler used to serialize data ; php is the standard serializer of PHP Thanks in advance J
