Hi,
I've a file login.php that create a session, register a variable(myVar) and
call (include) another file login1.php in the server side.
I need to use the registred variable in the second file but
$_SESSION["myVar"] is empty.

here is a simplified example of my problem, the command echo
($_SESSION["myVar"]) isn't displaying any thing
login.php :
========
<?php
  $myVar="test"
  session_start();
  session_register("myVar");

  include("login1.php");
?>

login1.php :
=======
<?php
  session_start();

  echo ($_SESSION["myVar"]);
?>

Note: I need to have myVar in the $_SESSION array in login1.php because in
other context I call it from the browser, so I'll the same code.
Thanks.
