echo "cookie = ".$_COOKIE[session_name()];
to the second page.
To check if transparent sessions are enabled look into phpinfo() output -> session.use_trans_sid

I've tried the suggested code changes and no difference :( I just don't think sessions are working for me at all.
I said in my original posting that the second page was creating an empty file in my session.save_path directory as though the second page has no reference to the first one.
In my save_path directory I have the following files:
sess_8e603c46412d9c4dd3fa6bf3d98c100f 0 KB File 23/10/2003 10:37 sess_f548763ea84f7d812539720142ac6efe 1 KB File 23/10/2003 10:37
The top one presumably created by page 2 is empty and the bottom one contains
foo|s:5:"Hello";bar|s:5:"World";
I don't know how sessions work in php and whether they use cookies or not but it seems to me that the session_start() on page 2 is creating a new session instead of referring to the current one.
Jason how do I check for those settings? I see nothing in php.ini that refers to transparent sessions and I believe my browser is accepting cookies. Could it be an Apache configuration issue? I thought sessions were maintained on the server somehow.
Thanks

The example I am using is to get one page to set variables in a session

then use another page to retrieve them. I am using 4.3.4RC2 and prior

that 4.3..3 on Win2k with IE6 and Apache 1.3.22.
The code is:

Code looks OK.
One explanation: you have not enabled transparent sessions, and your
browser
is not accepting cookies.
