$_SESSION comes empty on next page

[tornado]

Hello all,

I am not able to find the solution to this problem :(.
I have two php pages . On the first page i am getting some values in
$_SESSION when i use print_r function. I don't get the values when i
use just echo() or print() functions.
Now, the first page calls the second php page. But when i try to get
the values for $_SESSION on the second page i get empty values even
when i use print_r() function.
register.globals is set to on in php.ini. I am also using
start_session() on these pages but to no effect.

Can any one pleez help me out ??? Any kind of help will be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It'd be useful to see your code... Post it up. It's quite tricky to give
advice on a potentially tricky issue if there's no source code to look at.

I had a similar problem recently (Win2000, IIS), and it turned out that PHP
did not have write-access to whatever directory that the session data was
stored in. You may want to look into this.

The session ID is different for each window instance. So if this is a new
instance of a window you will need to pass the session id to the new window
when you launch it.

If it is in the same browser window then you should be able to get session
variables without passing the variable.

1-have you set session.save_path ?
2-if you are using virtualhosts put this at the top of your .php file:
session_set_cookie_params(3200, '/', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
