Did you use session_start() on the second page? In other words, the first page should have
session_start(); session_register("the_var"); $the_var=-"here it is"; link or whatever takes you to the second page. Then the second page needs session_start(); echo "$the_var"; Janet ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cristian Cerda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 11:15 AM Subject: [PHP] session register!! > Hi there, hope you can help me with my problem. > > I'm trying to set up a PHP/MySQL web site using session variables to > pass information between pages.
