Example Code:

$MMBetaDepartment = 'bad name';
$MMBetaDepart = 'good name';

session_register("MMBetaDepart","MMBetaDepartment");

echo $MMBetaDepartment;
echo $MMBetaDepart;

The following script works fine with PHP 4.1.0 RC2

<?php
session_register("MMBetaDepart","MMBetaDepartment");

echo ++$MMBetaDepartment;
echo ++$MMBetaDepart;
?>
