My actual question is: How do I get a POST variable into a session
variable so I can use it in any other page I want to use it in?
Apparently posted variables are only available in the Form page in
the file called by Action=, right? But I'd like to use it in other
places.

There are several ways to do this. A $_SESSION variable is one way, and in
many cases that's the most convenient. However, if you have a bunch of
pages with <form>s that succeed one another, it's also possible to pass
this kind of information as <input type=hidden> variables without the
overhead of a session.
