Steve,
the problem here is, that Apache::Session only stores the data to the
database if it is modified, but Apache::Session only recognizes
modifications on the first level. That means your first push works, because
the array is created, the second push doesn't work because only the array is
changed. This change is on the second level (not directly in %udat). The
solution to this problem is simply to force a change on the first level, so
Apache::Session saves your data. The simplest thing is to add just after
your push a
$udat{dummy}++ ;

"onload" it then changes the middle frame to a page that displays a table of
all the items that have been pushed on to this second array.

> What I think is happening is that the process works correctly the first
time and the data is correctly stored in the session in the database. Second
time round It gets pushed on to the array and is printed out but doesn't get
stored properly in the database. (I presume the data in %udat is in memory
during processing the page and is stored in the database at the end of
processing)
