Thanks to Julie and Stuart for helping me.

With your direction, I got rid of the warning about the headers by putting 
the session_start() at the beginning of the file.

Now I get a different sort of error when I try to retrive the session variable:
-------------------------------
Warning: Undefined index: node in c:\program files\apache 
group\apache\htdocs\wan\getglobal.php on line 17
-------------------------------

Any ideas why?

(Here's the exact code I've got)
[sessions.php]
<?php session_start();?>
<html>
<head>
<title>A test</title>
</head>
<body>

<?php
         function sessionSetNode ($node_id) {
                 return ($_SESSION['node'] = $node_id);
         }

         sessionSetNode("10.2");
?>

</body>
</html>

[getglobal.php]
<?php session_start();?>
<html>
<head>
<title>A test</title>
</head>
<body>

<?php
   if (!empty($_SESSION)) {
       extract($_SESSION);
   } else if (!empty($HTTP_SESSION_VARS)) {
       extract($HTTP_SESSION_VARS);
   }

   function sessionGetNode () {
     return $_SESSION['node'];
   }

   $n = sessionGetNode();
   echo ("Node is $n.");
?>

</body>
</html>


TIA,
Leston
