-----
session_start();
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["m_name"] = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($HTTP_POST_VARS["m_name"]) : $HTTP_POST_VARS["m_name"];
-----
Then later I can successfully echo the posted value with:
-----
htmlentities($HTTP_SESSION_VARS["m_name"])
-----
The posted value is shown as expected, which means the session variable is set, right? At the end of the receiving script page I have a link back to the form where the values were posted from, and in the original form I check for session variables in order to re-populate the form with them if they're present:
-----
session_start();
$m_name = isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS["m_name"]) ? $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["m_name"] : "";
-----
Then in the original HTML form field:
-----
<?php echo($m_name); ?>
-----
But $m_name == "" and the field is blank.
The same code works as expected on a different server running PHP 4.3.8 on Apache 1.3.31 on Linux. I think I'm stuck with 4.0.6 for this project. I'd appreciate any suggestions on what I should check/advice on using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS.
