afaik, a session is handled as follows in later versions of php:

1. initiate session i.e. session_start(); this is required only if you do
not have session.auto_start=1 in php.ini.

2. Add session variables to global array $_SESSION[] like
$_SESSION['test']="test variable"

3. Access the session vaiable in subsequent calls as index of global
associative array $_SESSION[];
e.g. echo $_SESSION['test']

4. Finally, destroy the session when its no longer need by session_destroy()
and free the resources allocated to this particular session.

regds,
