You only have to register the session variables once. If you need to register the
same variables again (such as for a different user), then you should use
session_destroy() before registering the variables again.
The variables should be available throughout your pages as long as session_start() is
done before ANY output goes to the HTML. It's usually best to have it as the FIRST
thing on your pages.

/me feels kinda dumb now.
Well even after adding session_start to my connect.inc, it doesn't work. I
only need to do session_register() once correct? Or do I need to do that
everytime I do session start? If I have to do it everytime then what is
the point of sessions?

I fear you're missing something fundemental here. The active session
needs to be requested for each script. So session_start() needs to be
called at the top of each script (or at least before any output).
Example..
page 1
----------
<?
session_start();
$myvar = "foo bar";
session_register('myvar');
// or //
$_SESSION['myvar'] = $myvar;
?>
page 2
---------
<?
session_start();
unset($_SESSION['myvar'];
// or //
session_unregister('myvar');
?>

Sorry about that I should have been more detailed.
session_start() and all of my session_register() calls happen on login.php
here is a sample session_register call.
session_register("currentbid");
I am under the impression that I only need one session register call.

$_SESSION['currentbid'] isn't available until you do session_start();
session_start();
unset($_SESSION['currentbid']);
Or is this what does connect.inc contains?
