Cheers for the help on this. Yes it does. But it doesn't erase the session values (it seems that's what you think is happening?). I think what you need to do (I do this sometimes too) is start from scratch and create a very basic test page that works as expected. Then slowly add in the features you want. It'll give you a much greater understanding of how things work and where you're going wrong. Sure it's tedious but it'll help you in the long run. Here is a good base to start with: <?php session_start(); if(isset($_GET['var']) && !empty($_GET['var'])) { $_SESSION['myVariable'] = "from form"; } else { $_SESSION['myVariable'] = "direct request"; } print_r($_SESSION); ?> hth, Chris. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
