Thanks Curt,
You were absolutely correct. Removing the
session_register() lines before the $_SESSION[] fixed
the problem. By mixing the two before, it actually
would register the variable so I could later test for
the registered session variable but it did not retain
the value I assigned it. Thanks again for the help.
