RE: [PHP-WIN] session problem

Hello Afan, I'm also using Sessions, but I learned that when using session_register you don't use the normal variable syntax with the session variable, such as ($name). Here's my code that works properly: <? //register the user's ID and permission level session_register('SESSION_UID'); session_register('SESSION_UPERMS'); $SESSION_UID = $uid; $SESSION_UPERMS = $uperms; ?> As you can see I use session_register('variablename'), then declare the session variables after registering them (at first they have nothing in them, or 0, I believe. By the way, $uid and $uperms are values I retrieved from the database. You can hardcode values in there accordingly. So your code would be: <php session_start(); session_register('name'); $name="afan"; ?> And that should work. Hope this helps...
