I tried removing session register but this turned out worse as it will
store the session variable in the first place.
I mean, before removing session_register, the value
$_SESSION["userid"] was set to NULL, but without session_register, it
will not even know that there is something called
$_SESSION["userid"] !
Still wondering why it will work on one server but not the other!
