Er, nope.  If you have a version of PHP with the $_SESSION array, then you use it for 
both setting *and* retrieving -- session_register() and friends should *not* be used 
in this case.  (Indeed, there are circumstances where the combination of 
session_register() with $_SESSION gives broken behaviour.)
