Might i refer you to:

http://ca.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php
http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.session-register.php

$HTTP_POST_VARS has been considered deprecated for some time now.
session_register() is considered clumsy and dangerous since it is only
works with register_globals enabled which is itself considered poor
coding style in this enlightened era of PHP.

Cheers,
Rob.
