PROBLEM SOLVED!
Hi and thanks for all your input and help.
I solved the problem. There was one little thing I just didn't think about.
What I actually did was include a variable (include($page)) and let the
last page the user was on send a value for $page. Now, the pages I
wanted to include, I included to different pages in different
folders/directories so the variable $page was actually set to the full
URL of the page to avoid confusions. But apearantly PHP drops all
$_SESSION variables when inluding a full URL. Even when the URL-home is
idetical to the page the user are on... Relative paths like
$page="../folder/thispage.php" works fine when including $page.

Actually it does not make that much sense.
I use includes, with PHP extension, and never had a problem.
Take a look at how you communicate between modules, ergo if you have globals
on or off, the scope of variables, etc.
It seems as if "user_level" is not known within the module.

Subject: Re: SESSIONS and include()
Read the user post (currently 2nd) from greatmagicalhat [at] gmail [dot]
com at the link below. I've never tried including a php file myself so
cannot verify their information, but it makes sense. When I use
includes, I use a specific file extension and store the files in a
protected directory (so they are not just able to be viewed by browsing
directly to the file) and it works fine. If you do it with a different
file extension, make sure you configure your web server to make PHP
process pages with that extension. Cheers.

Hi
PROBLEM:
I want to let certain users use certain funcions on my page. To manage
that I start a session and define $_SESSION[user_level] to a value from
a mySQL table. So far so good. Users with $_SESSION[user_level]=="1" can
access things on the .php page they are on. I made a simple if-statement
to handle that.
Now the problem is that i want to use include("page.php") and let the
users with user_level=1 access special things on that included page. The
if statements that let them change things work if I access the page
directly from my browser but not when it is included in that main page.
Whats am I missing?
