Re: [PHP] session var being lost between pages

[Jean-Christian Imbeault]

Can someone explain this to me? I am not very confused after reading this 
post ...

>are you sure you have session_start() on all three pages and you have 
>enabled 'track_vars'???

I have done no such thing. The PHP book I have doesn't mention any of this. 
It simply says that using session_start() and session_register() will cause 
the vars to be kept between pages. Are you sure what you are sayign is true?

If so please help me understand because I never saw any methion of what you 
say must be done in any book or on PHP ML etc ...

Thanks!

are you sure you have session_start() on all three pages and you have 
enabled 'track_vars'???
cuz if you don't you'll have to manually pass the session id trought the 
form...
