Because here, you haven't assigned anything to $element_countp -- you've
only assigned it to $_SESSION['element_countp']. (With register_globals
Off, the two are not the same.) If you turned your error_reporting level up
to E_ALL, you'd probably get a warning at this point saying that
$element_countp is undefined.

Now you've assigned a value to $register_countp, so you get it output.
