thanks for the starter. I have session.use_trans_sid = 1 in my php.ini,
I also have session_start() at the beginning of both pages. Now
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS is there, but its a blank array.
print_r($HTTP_SESSION_VARS); yields-> Array ( )
the code I have at one page is
$z=<some data>;
session_start();
session_register('$z');
I also tried without the quotes, still a blank array. What am I doing
wrong? How do I make sure I'm starting the correct session in the new
page? I can get the session ID, but what do I do with it?
