This can be done by a register_shutdown_function() who registers all the vars in $_SESSION, using session_register. That's all :)) If I can understand this new feature correctly (I never used it). > Regarding the extract() idea, please clarify a little more. I think Rasmus referred to the register_globals deprecation question, which is another thing IMHO, that need to be documented. There are many "user notes" coming up about using: extract($_REQUEST); and the like to simluate register_globals. This can be a really bad thing sometimes...
