Here is a nutty one:

I have session variables in my page. Take two of them:
$_SESSION['currentID'] and $_SESSION['firstName'].

Now $_SESSION['currentID'] is set before the page and
$_SESSION['firstName'].is set on entry to the page. The
$_SESSION['firstName'].displays properly in the following html code, so I
know it gets set.

When I click on a button named editFoo, I do a

if (!isset($_POST['editFoo']) {
header{"Location: blah");
}

What happens is that the $_SESSION['currentID'] is still there but the
$_SESSION['firstName'].is empty.

I checked the sending page by putting an echo before the if statement (which
is the last before going into display the html and after the
$_SESSION['firstName'].has been set. Both variables display perfectly.
When I click on the editFoo button, only the $_SESSION['currentID'] displays
properly and the other displays empty.

I have @session_start() in all.

Any clues?
