Your right and I agree with you. My perspective is that the example(s) in the manual does not actually address my particular situation. In the manual example it's showing the session variable set to the value of count. If that value of count changes, it's updated in the variable. > The 'something' in your particular case is the data > from the form on Page1. Eg $_SESSION['variable'] = $_POST['myforminput']; Yes, I've tried this, it didn't work so I'm doing something wrong. I'm not sure if A) in the field area do i keep the value set as "value="<?php echo $_SESSION['MyName']; ?>"> or is that where my mistake is happening ? MyName is the value not the variable so I think this is the right way to register the variable: $_SESSION['name'] = $_POST['myname']; Maybe I leave the value blank and rely on the field name ?
