I have changed my controller abit according to your advice
*CODE:*
def echo():
session.name=request.vars.name
return 'Welcome, ', session.name
& in view 2 and other views i simply add {{=session.name}} and i get what I
want, it works & i hope the semantics of how i used session are ok
*VIEW 2*
<h3>LESSON 1 QUIZ 2</h3><span><a href="javascript: history.back()">BACK</a>
| <a href="javascript:history.go(0);">TEST AGAIN</a></span> | <a href=
"lesson1quiz3.html">NEXT QUIZ</a>
</header>
<div id="target" class="target" style="float: right; color: #1f8f7b;
font-weight: bold;">
Welcome, {{=session.name}}
</div>
Thanks Val K
