note 20375 added to ref.session

Using PHP 4.1.2 on IIS 5.0, Win2k, haven't migrated app yet to Linux (later!) Managed to eventually get the sessions to work as follows. In the php.ini, session.auto_start = 1 Then without a session_start(); $xvar = "something" ; Use session_register("xvar"); then u CAN retrieve from a later page using the new way: $var = $_SESSION["xvar"] ; also without session_start(); even doing a var_dump($_SESSION); seems to work at least some of the time! The odd thing is that storing vars using the new way: $_SESSION["xvar"] = "something"; will save only for the CURRENT page, this gets lost when moving on to the next page! best regards Mike -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+20375 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+20375 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+20375
