THis is a gatcha I just found... I have a statement like this: <a href = "<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>?variable=1">set a variable</a> I left out the echo, so the PHP block was just <?PHP $PHP_SELF ?> which is still valid syntactically, so got no errors. It just hung when I tried to do a session_register ("variable") with no indication as to the problem. Maybe I'm just dumb, but I spent a week banging my head against the wall, recompiling PHP and Apache many times. Hope this helps someone! -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+17103 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+17103 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+17103
