Included PHP pages do not find SESSIONS which are defined and says undefined

Asked by TycoonMillion in PHP Scripting Language, Web Languages/Standards

Hey

I asked the same question a while back on here but the solution is not working for me this time. Look at these pages first please in this order...
Page 1: www.webtechglobal.co.uk  (Attempt to login using Username and Password) you will see undefined index authgrant

Page 2: http://www.webtechglobal.co.uk/chat.php    at the top of the page you will see the followng...       test1 = yestest2 = admin


test1 is an echoed variabled populated with the session for authgrant and test2 for another session. This shows that on this page the sessions are registered correctly. The top right login box will also change. Its all test stage just now so security is hardly even in there.

The different between pages will show in the URL after you attempt to login! I use a pagecell to display the content however the chat.php is its own entire page.

Page 3: http://www.webtechglobal.co.uk/index.php?cellname=pagecells/home.php
You will now see the top right login panel disappear because the header of this site is also included from a seperate file but not on the chat.php page!

i spent hours trying to sort it, learn it and confirm this is that matter I just can't figure out a quick solution. I can think of some long solutions but they have problems of their own so I wondered if anyone wanted to give this one a try! Its either a problem with the site URL method acting like another domain which would not use the same SESSION from what I read or its because they are included files.

Tried everything I can find online either way and now I'm totally stuck. Anyone want some points? :)

Thanks for any help
Ryan
