try using the $_SESSION superglobal var (google is your friend if its
new to you.)
no need to register (still need to do session_start() though) just
do...
$_SESSION['MyValue'] = array(
'name' => $username,
'level' => $account_level
);
...or something like that. (also works for objects - which is only gets
really cool in php5 - be aware that classes for objects stored in your
session should be loaded BEFORE you start the session.)
