First of all, you don't need to call session_register(). Just set the
value in $_SESSION.
And ensure you are calling session_start() before *any* output (even
white space) on both pages.
If it still fails, enable all errors and display them. See if you're
getting any (errors, that is :-) ). If not, echo $user just before you
put in $_SESSION and see what's there. Also, in the second page, try
echo "<pre>\n";
print_r($_SESSION);
echo "</pre>\n";
to see what's actually in your $_SESSION superglobal.
It does work just fine.
