Ahhh, so that's your problem then....the include isn't getting the session id. I've never used an include with a session setup before but I would see the easiest thing to do be have the include first echo the session id number and see if it is actually getting passed or not on the first call echo session_id(); if that returns nothing for you then the next step might be to assign a temporary variable in your main script $sess_id = session_id(); and then set that session id in the include file directly session_id($sess_id); This is all uncharted waters for me, I usually don't use includes and functions together so I've never had to deal with such an issue. As far as the session name goes....you actually don't need to specify one....by default the session name is PHPSESSION and really unless you have a real reason for using a different session name there is no real benefit to specifying another session name (afaik).
