Problem with $_SESSION and header("Location:...

[hemingvej45@gmail.com]

Session variables set before a header("Locatio n: whatever") are not
being written.

And yes, before the header() call, I have session_write_c lose() but the
result is the same. This problem is with PHP 4.3.10 on my hosting
providers' server (and obviously I wouldn't like the hassle of changing
hosting providers), but it works OK on some other PHP 4 and PHP 5
servers.

Is there any workaround?

Disregard. I'm really stupid. It seems that register globals was left
enabled on this server and the variables in the session were
overwritten by the variables in the script. Why would anyone be so lazy
to use register globals is beyond me....
