session question

Is it proper to initialize the session var before assigning a value to it?

PHP Code:
 session_register("se_LOGIN"); 



because this works by itself

PHP Code:
 $_SESSION["se_LOGIN"] = $A_LOGIN



Just wondering what is correct...

You might want to read the session_register page of the PHP Manual, that has quite a few notes you should read:

http://au2.php.net/manual/en/functi...on-register.php

In general, they say you should either use one or the other: but not both at once - however, the $_SESSION array provides a little bit more functionality.

If you've got access to the $_SESSION array, you should that to manipulate your session vars. This is the general consensus, anyway.
