Thanks.  This did indeed turn out to be the problem.  I have it
working now, although someday I will need to correct everything such that I
can keep Register Globals off.

Chances are your problem lies with Register Globals. In php 4.1.x this
defaulted to on, which meant that all session variables were access as
$mysessionthingy
However, in php 4.2.x and higher, the way sessions work has changed
dramatically. However, the old methods (using session_start and so on) are
still supported IF you set register_globals to ON in your php.ini file. For
more infomation, please go to the php site and look up sessions. I
personally believe the new method is a lot better than the older methods,
and suggest you consider updating!

Hope this helps,

Stephen
