tlavelle Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I have two files. Each has the session_start() declaration at the top. File one has some echos I use to make sure I have populated the session variable and that seems to be good. File 2 has the same debugs and the session variable never makes it to file 2. I have read the manual. I have googled. Help please!! file one <?php //initialize session session_start(); ?> <html> <head> <basefont face="Arial"> </head> <body> <?php // set server access variables $host = "localhost"; $user = "root"; $pass = ""; $db = "wercbench"; $useryear=$_POST['year']; // open connection $connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die ("Unable to connect!"); // select database mysql_select_db($db) or die ("Unable to select database!"); // create form 1 queries $year_query = "SELECT distinct year FROM userdata"; $industry_query = "SELECT distinct comp_desc FROM comp_desc"; // execute form 1 queries $year_result = mysql_query($year_query) or die ("Error in query: $query.
