Oh, yes it will! -- $_SESSION is, after all, a *superglobal*!

Now, this won't work:

  function myfunc()
      {
      return $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['something'];
      }

And nor will this (assuming register_globals=On):

  function myfunc()
      {
      return $my_session_var;
      }

-- both of these need an appropriate global statement, or use of the $GLOBALS array.

Cheers!

Mike
