Description:
------------
See below

Test script:
---------------
Can anyone tell me why this code didn’t work:
  $vu=$_SESSION["valid_user"];
  $txt="PROBLEM: You may not proceed. You are not logged in.";
  if ($vu!="Yes") {php_alert($txt,"index.php");}

but this code did?
  $chk=$_SESSION["valid_user"];
  $txt="PROBLEM: You may not proceed. You are not logged in.";
  if ($chk!="Yes") {php_alert($txt,"index.php");}

The Session variable didn’t pass from another program in the first case but did in the second case.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

found it depended on whether another program ran first. Please ignore this report
