Code: Select all

while($Row = mysql_fetch_object($Res))
	{
		$adminID = $Row -> adminID;
		$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['adminID'] = $adminID;
		$firstName = $Row -> firstName;
		$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['firstName'] = $firstName;
		$lastName = $Row -> lastName;
		$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['lastName'] = $lastName;

Normally $_SESSION works like this - in my scripts :
$_SESSION['somevariable'] = $somevariable;
echo $_SESSION['somevariable']

Yeah, $HTTP_SESSION_VARS is the old way of accessing them. Use $_SESSION now.
Also, you might as well shorten each line to this:

Code: Select all

$_SESSION['adminID'] = $Row->adminID;
*shrugs*

$_SESSION acts just like any other variable in this sense:

Code: Select all

echo $miscvar;
// ~ or ~
echo $_SESSION['whatever'];
// ~ or ~
echo $_GET['something_else'];
