Thanks all, yes, it's like that, and a & b work.
The difference? I was doing
$_SESSION['index']= $myString;
instead of
$_SESSION["index"]= $myString;
Now with "s it works.
Why?
And, worryingly, I set three variables, then dump $_SESSION and it
contains three variables. I think it should still contain
$_SESSION["index"]= "value";
from the a/b test.
I'm fairly certain I'm not using any session functions to clear the
session .. best guess for the cause of the loss of that variable?
Cheers

Hi John,
What do you mean about "another program"? Is it something like...
a.php:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION["index"]= "value";
echo "call b <a href=\"b.php\">here</a>";
?>
b.php:
<?php
session_start();
var_dump($_SESSION);
?>
... or something else?
Try the example above, if this does not work then you should start looking
at your php.ini for session support, check if it's disabled or something.
Or maybe try using session_write_close() at the end of the scripts, they
might work (if session support is enabled).

Assunto: Very simple session question
Hi
I've gone bozzeyed, so I've a simple question for you.
I open session_start() as the first thing, on each page.
I set a session variable using, for instance,
$_SESSION['ACCOUNTemail'] = $email;
The next program, when I var_dump($_SESSION), it shows an empty array.
That program does run session_start() too.
What's obviously wrong, or what's my most likely cause?
Cheers
J
