Are saying that session can not persist over different pages?

I'm afraid that's not what the seesion is all about.
The session is a unique value. It is assigned to a cookie if specified
in php.ini or is tagged along in all your URLs as a query string or $_GET
and has the name PHPSESSID by default unless you change it.
If you want to save something fro page 1 and retrieve it in page 3, then
you will need to do the same hing and store this value as a cookie.
$_COOKIE['cookiename'] will retrieve it.
But there are some provisos. You cannot assign a cookie value and set
header("Location.. etc on the same page, the cookie will not be set. You
need to set a cookie and let the page return to the browser.
That's with Windows environments anyway.
