Ayy. If registerglobals should be on, try to turn it off. It just supports laziness and promotes confusion. But that's just my very subjective opinion. Checking for registerglobals is a good idea, though, and grouping form fields into an array is one as well, as long as you stay in php with your backend. Also, try fiddling with your cookie settings, if a lower setting solves the problem, you have to add the session-id to the action in the form tag, i.e. <form method="post" action="somewhere.php? =<?=session_name().'='.session_id();?"> Ah, and, don't know if you knew or not: You can see what's left of your session, your post and generally any array with print_r or vardump, i.e. print_r($_SESSION); print_r($_POST). As other people said, you probably either forgot to session_start() somewhere, or the post screws up the transparent session id thingy, or registerglobals is on.
