The second case won't work if you have register globals turned on I
believe, as it will attempt to create $_SESSION['myvar'] as $myvar. I
believe that RG might have something to do with the first as well. I
seem to remember a thread a while back talking about sessions not being
able to use numbered indexes because they are a special super global.
