From php:

<?php session_start() ; ?>
....

<html>

<pre>
<?print_r($_SES SION);?>
</pre>

Of course you can neaten it up by enumerating your $_SESSION array, i.e.
with foreach().

To do it in Java, try a java newsgroup.

And if you're talking about sharing session values in PHP and Java, I
don't think you can do it with the default handlers. But I haven't
tried, either.

Is there any way through which I can get what session variables are

created in the session.

Yes, just show the contents of $_SESSION. With a foreach-loop can build
you nicely formatted results.

Also is it necessary that Page A should also be in php. Will it work
if it is java.

In short: page A should be in PHP.

This is not a really absolute statement, however. PHP knows a "session
handler" which can be configured. You could theoretically write a
session handler that can read the java session, but you will have to do
some research on how to do it...
If you go that way, it may even be easier to use plain file handling (or
whatever mechanism java is using) and read java's session file. I do not
know how java stores session values.

Best regards.
