Hi Kirk,
I'm not sure that's how it is supposed to work. I really think that this is
a PHP bug. I had to turn register globals back on in order to get my code
working again. I thought you're supposed to be able to simply declare a
variable, do a session_register on it, and then access it on subsequent
pages using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS. I'm going to keep register globals on for
now I think. Thanks for your help!
Mike
