I would like to use a function to check to see if a session variable is set and return the session variable if it is set, and return blank if not. Something like

function set_var($var)
  {
  echo "var = $var \n";
  if (isset($_SESSION['$var']))
    {
    return $_SESSION['$var'];
    }
  else
    {
    return "";
    }
  }

And I would call the function with set_var($name) or set_var($phone). The problem is getting the function to use $var as a variable name, rather than a value. What am I missing, please?
