But an already uninitialized php variable can not be assigned to a session variable!! I can't understand why? But.. Also the warning message is also confusing as I am already using version 5.2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-05-30 12:06:03] tony2...@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.
