That's because you are registering 'name', which is to say $name, rather
that whatever is *inside* of $name...
Okay, the docs *DO* point out that you need to use the name of the variable
for session_register, not the varible itself, but $name *HOLDS* the name of
your variable.
In other words, consider this:
<?php
$name = 'foo';
$foo = 42;
session_register('foo'); #RIGHT
session_register($foo); #WRONG
session_register($name); #RIGHT, same as session_register('foo') since
$name == 'foo'
session_register('name'); #WRONG, that's registering $name, not $foo
?>
Hope that makes sense.
Oh, and use error_reporting(E_ALL) to crank up your warning messages.
You'll end up writing better code because of it.
