    Sessions

    I am confused on how to define $_SESSION['text']

    On one page I defined:

    $_SESSION['picture1_type'] = $_FILES['picture1']['type'];
    echo $_SESSION['picture1_type'] ;

    echo displayed the correct data. image/gif

    On the next page, I echo:

    echo "Session 1 = ".$_SESSION['picture1_type'];
    $ii=1;
    echo "Session i = ".$_SESSION['picture'.$ii.' _type'];

    Now both display empty value.

    Session 1 = Session i =

    What can make a session variable reset to "" ?

    The other session variables on all pages work correctly; so it is only this
    session variable that is resetting.

    Is it necessary to define a variable on one page and form the session
    variable on the next pager?

      Did you call session_start() at the beginning of the page?

          Yes, session_start() is called on each page.

          There are other session variables that are working.
