Sometimes I got weird behavior trying to update session variables... I found the best way to do this was to unregister them and then re-register them and always try to do it on the lowest stack level. <br><br> I suggest to the people writing php that there be some more lower level session functions. Like, keep session_register() appart from session_start - like, dont make it do a session start because that seems to reload the value from the session - not just overwrite the current one. there should be a session_storekey($keyname,$value) session_getkey($keyname) that returns the value so u can set it to whatever variable u wana... maybe session_restore_state(SID) that loads up ALL of the variables in a session - and it'd be nice to be able to deal more specifically with session IDS (like put them into a $SID=14453214132 or whatever variable.) and use those variables to keep track of sessions - like what if u wana join two sessions from two web pages? *shrug*
