How is a function supposed to do anything before it is called? I don't
understand how you come to that conclusion.
The session_register() function lets PHP know that you want a particular
variable registered in the current session. If the variable already exists, it
will retrieve it for you. This is how you are able to use a session variable on
another page.
If you don't udnerstand this, you might want to just use session_register() at
the top of your script(s) to keep yourself from making this particular mistake.
However, I strongly suggest researching sessions a lot more, or you will find
it frustratingly difficult to solve session problems without a good
understanding of what is going on.
