Can you pass a value with a form that starts a session? let me explain a little better with some code.

 

page1.html

<form action="page2.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="value">
<input type="submit">
</form>

 

too

 

page2.php

<?php
$value = $_POST['value'];

if ($value) {
  session_start();
}
?>

 

would page2.php actually start a session. The reason I ask is because i think you are supposed to have sessions start before any other php code.

session_start() must be called before any output is passed to the browser. Make an include file like 'config.php' where you have the session_start() and the initialization of any other variables and include in the beginning of each file you have.
