Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP.

When I saved it as $_SESSION['newsletter']= $newsletter; and then got the value of the session variable later, it was not what was saved previously. It seemed to be empty or null. This bug may also have caused the page to hang, and numerous invocations of the script - my web stats showed that the script had been run several thousand times by me. However, an ob_flush() seemed to fix this problem of hanging. When I changed the session variable name to xnewsletter, it fixed the problem. Note: my php host is using php 5.2.6 and I do not have the option of asking them to change that Reproduce code: --------------- session_start(); $_SESSION['newsletter']= $newsletter; ...later... session_start(); $newsletter=$_SESSION['newsletter']; Expected result: ---------------- see Description ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47344&edit=1
