Thanks, but I still can't get it to work. Check the following:
Originating Page:
<?
if($_POST['repost']=='y') {
session_start();
$_SESSION['xxx']='test';
session_write_close();
header('Location: http://www.mysite.com/test/testsess2.php');
exit();
}
?>

"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action=<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?> method="post">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
<input type="hidden" name="repost" value="y" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Target Page - testsess2.php:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
echo "xxx=".$_SESSION['xxx'];
?>
</body>
</html>
Try these pages and see if they work for you....
