Try this instead:

session_start();
session_register("count");
$count = array();
$count[0]++;


Btw. faik a variable you session_register() will not be available in
the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS before you've left the page. But I'm not
sure, so you should check that out.

You should check $count for existence btw, before you register it as
a session variable. Ca. it's already registered as a session
variable. Then you don't want to register it again.

And besides that, what would you think of initializing variables? I
mean... you increase $count[0], but from which value? I'd say
something like this:

--- PHP code ---
session_start();

if (!isset ($count)) {
  $count = array();
  $count[0] = 0;

  if (!session_is_registered) {
    session_register ("count");
  }
}

$count[0]++;
--- End of PHP code ---
