If you're going to use $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, then you have to use session_register().
<? session_start(); session_register('count'); ?> Next page: <? session_start(); echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count']; ?> That should work. If you use $_SESSION, instead, then you don't have to use session_register. That's how I understand it... ---John Holmes... >>> "Henry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 07/17/02 10:14AM >>> The answer is probably yes. I do a "session_start()" followed by a "$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count']=2" on one page. Then I go to another page and do a "session_start()" again; unfortunately the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count'] is empty!!! I tried doing a "session_register('count2'); $count2=123;" in the first page followed by another page where I display "$count2" and that works fine. Why?
