[/quote] actually I did it and apparently their value is what I set few lines above.

Hi folks, I have a problem here with session vars. I have 3 pages: page1.php is just a silly login/authentication form (no session there!), in page2.php I collect credentials from page1.php (login password), I check them with a mysql db and I use some user's details to store them into session variables (the idea is to start a session for validated users only). Everything works fine till here. In page2.php I have a search form and I use the information the user types here, together with the value of session vars to create page3.php. Unfortunately although in page3.php I can get the right value of the $_POST variables I cannot get the session vars. If I echo this $_SESSION['FRST_VAR'] I receive an 'Undefined index FRST_VAR' error. Could some of you tell me why is that?

Hi folks, First of all I'm definitely not a skilled PHP programmer. I have a problem here with session vars.
