Well, as you're using old-style $HTTP_SESSION_VARS session variables, these should act identically to any other variables in your script vis-a-vis the include file. And I can't see any reason why your $profileArray shouldn't be exactly what you want it to be in view.php. So, let's try a bit of simple debugging: what do you see if you put echo '<pre>var_dump='; var_dump($index, $profileArray[$index]); echo "</pre>\n"; as the very last bit of PHP in display.php, and the same in view.php immediately after the include statement (before the echo "4profileUserID...")? You should get identical results (even if wrong ones!) -- if not, something *very* weird is happening. Cheers!
