Note Submitter: martinlarsen at bigfoot dot com ---- Here is another way of losing session variables (not complete sessions): I kept loosing *some* session variables controlling logins, but most of the session vars stayed intact. After nearly going crazy, I discovered that the web host had register_globals ON. That meant that each time I assigned a variable with the same name as a session variable, the session variable changed too! For example: $_SESSION['id'] = 100; $id = 0; echo $_SESSION['id']; // This prints 0, not 100! If some of your session vars dissappear or change mysteriously, look out for register_globals = ON !!!
