OK, I'll admit I've been doing it wrong (using session_register()), so I'm
trying to correct my ways, but...

My script starts with
<?php
 session_start();
?>

In the body of my page a link as follows:

  <a href="targetUrl.php?<php print SID; ?>">Target text</a>

Problem: SID is an empty string. I even tried
 echo "SID: " . SID . '<br />';

and SID echoes as an empty string. Why?
