You modify $count *after* storing it in session data?

From manual:

"If you want your script to work regardless of register_globals, you need
to instead use the $_SESSION array as $_SESSION entries are automatically
registered. If your script uses session_register(), it will not work in
environments where the PHP directive register_globals is disabled."

I particularly find it very easy to write insecure scripts when
register_globals is set to 'on' so I always use $_SESSION. I don't think it
worth trying to debug a script that relies on register_globals.
