I'm new but.. aren't you also supposed to register the session??
My code ..
session_start();
session_register('username');
$_SESSION['username'] = $row['username'];
session_register('user_id');
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $row['user_id'];
session_register('access_level');
$_SESSION['access_level'] = $row['access_level'];
Cheers,

on):
"This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means
that it is available in all scopes throughout a script. You don't need to do
a global $_SESSION; to access it within functions or methods, as you do with
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS."
So, this gets more perplexing.
I should also note that I did try to use the global keyword, and it didn't
help. Also, I tried setting the $_SESSION variables in question to
something else ($_SESSION["fname"] = " ") before calling the function.
Didn't help either.
I have just never had a problem with sessions before. But I'm guessing it's
my code, as I can replicate the behavior on three different installations of
PHP/Apache.
