The problem lies with the fact that you have a variable 'name' that gets
posted in the form as well as a session variable 'name' that is passed to
the script when it is executed again. As far as I remember the session
variable supercedes the posted variable, so the session variable would
overwrite the value of the posted variable every time. You need to register
the session variable with another name and then toggle between the two
variables in you script.
Also, a session variable need only be registered once:
if (!session_is_registered("name")) {
session_register("name");
}

Subject: [PHP] Session
Hi,
I have read: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-register.php
Could I ask you a question about how to set a session $vars in a <FORM>?
It seems to be quite a mystery/controversy!!
This is my problem:

Type something.
Press submit.
Change your text and re-submit.
$name doesn't re-save itself. This is my code:

Would you have any suggestions?
It can't be that complicated can it?
