You have to register each "field" like this:
session_register("UserName"); // register UserName as a session var
$UserName = $new_value_for_username; // give UserName session var a
new value.
session_register("Password"); // register Password as a session var
$Password = $new_value_of_password; // give Password session var a
new value.
Then in the next script, after you do session_start();, you
will have access to those previously registered session
variables by just using $UserName and $Password.
