Note Submitter: guideng at unlv dot nevada dot edu ---- Make sure you put session_start() at the beggining of your script. My sessions kept unsetting and I finally figured out why. On my script, session_start() has to be said and uses cookies to set the session. But I was outputting html prior to calling session_start(), which prevented it from succeeding becouse it uses the header function to place the cookies. Once html has been outputed, session_start() can't use the header function to set cookies, hence session_start() fails and no session can be started.
