from the looks of it, an output buffer is not really needed here.. if you do a

 

print_r($_SESSION);

 

after you specify sessionstart(), what are your results..?

[princeofpersia]

I get this

 

Array

(

    =>

)

[Muddy_Funster]

where are you actualy populating your $_SESSION variables?

[princeofpersia]

what do u mean?

[Muddy_Funster]

I meen where are you defining the values for your $_SESSION variables.  ie where are you telling the script what $_SESSION['email'] is to contain?

[princeofpersia]

from post, in my form, i need to register this session from there, 

[Muddy_Funster]

but your POST is setting a value to $myemail, the SESSION is using $email

I get the point now, sorted thanks very much for your time mate
