there is a setting you need to make after the session start
http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.session-cache-expire.php
check that link out I think that it will resolve alot of problems for you..
however I have noticed forms are a little trickier... usually what I do with
those is create the back link as a hyperlink which allows me to add the info
to the form when returned so it looks like the form hasnt lost its
information.

Hi,
I am trying to create restricted pages for my php/mysql/apache
server with sessions and passing session varibales to other pages for
validation.
Eventually I am doinng session_start() at the begining and
checking whether logged in user is authorised to use this page
by a routine.
Now problem is, if filled in data in the form is incorrect, the forms
gives an error. But when I press browser BACK button to get the
filled in form , the form seems to get reset with _no_ data.
When I try without session_start() at the begining of form , things
seem to behave normally.
Does session_start() reset the form and I guess browser should
have returned be by fiiled in page from cache ?
Please help

This doesn't happen with every browser. Opera never forgets the previous
page's form contents.
