problem with sessions

[firedrop84]

Hi ..

I am trying to use sessions but I got a problem with it. I can't display it in the other page. After the user login and I try to use session so I can refer to the variables in the other page it doesn't.

in the login screen this is the code that I have used. at the begging of my page

<?php
session_start();
session_register('EmployeeID');
session_register('Surname');
session_register('GivenName');
session_register('EmployeeUsername');
session_register('EmployeePassword');
session_register('EmployeeType');
session_register('Active');
?>

in the other page this is what I done

<?php
session_start();
?>

<?php

print "Your Surname is $Surname";

?>

Number 1: Never ever ever ever ever use session_register(), especially with register_globals on. Use this script:

[code]<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['surname'] = "SURNAME";
//other sessions
?>[/code]

[code]<?php
//Page Two
session_start();
print_r( $_SESSION );
?>[/code]
