Thanks for all the help! I have it working now and I am using both
$_SESSION and $_POST, which does indeed make sense in light of
everything everyone posted.
2 Quick questions:
1) I figured using the querystring would be $_QUERYSTRING or
something, but I can't find that...how do I grab the query string
vars the 'safe' way
2) I tried using this code on my user registration page to destroy
the current session so the user could start a new one if they wanted
to.. not sure its necessary (I guess they wouldn't re-register) but I
wondered why the code didn't work:
$_SESSION = array();
session_destroy();
I got the error:
Warning: Trying to destroy uninitialized session
I currently have a session running (I know its working, the name pops
up on each page)
Thanks.
Tom
