      You're going to need to compile the extension. What OS are you on?

              You be savvy to C programming, would you, i.e. have a compiler on your box (Visual Studio C++, or something like)?

                          There are a few problems with your code that you should fix before anything else.
                          • First of all, as always when you are developing your code, you should turn on the error messages. Otherwise you are flying blind.
                          • Remove the @ from the session_start function. It's rarely a good idea to suppress errors, especially errors relating to functions that would cripple your application when they fail. - If you want to hide the errors from your visitors, use the Error and Logging config directives to hide and/or re-route the error messages, but always keep them enabled in one way or another, and use them when you are debugging your code. (Use the ini_set function to change them, or simply change them in your php.ini file.)
                          • Always quote strings! PHP is smart (or dumb, depending on the perspective) enough to convert unquoted text into a string for you, but that's no excuse.
                            [code=php]
                            // INCORRECT!
                            $_SESSION[whatever] = "whatever";

                            // Correct
                            $_SESSION["whatever"] = "whatever";[/code]
                            [code=php]// INCORRECT
                            $something = something;

                            // Correct
                            $something = "something" ;[/code]
                            [code=php]// INCORRECT!
                            functionCall(so mething);

                            // Correct
                            functionCall("s omething");[/code]
                            And so on...
                          • The session_registe r function is deprecated and should therefore be avoided. But even so, the way you use it in your code is not the right way. - Line #5 of your damn.php file is the right way to set a session variable. It's best to just forget the session_registe r function altogether.


                          Try to fix that and see if you get anywhere. If not, post any error messages you get here and tell us exactly what is happening, or not happening.
