PHP Session Issue - Webmaster Forums - Webmaster forum for HTML, PHP, ASP, CSS and more

I'm having an issue with one section on my website dealing with sessions. Now I know that myself and two other individuals can get it to work without any issues on IE, FF, or other browsers, however, others cannot get it to work. Maybe someone can help me in the right direction?

Code:

<?php
session_start();
include "db.php";
?>


<?php
           if(!empty($pilotid)){
           ?>
           <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit Bid">       
          <? } ?>

This Submit button is where the issue is at. It is not showing up for everybody like I mentioned before. Any ideas?

what is the code inside db.php? I cant tell whats going on if i cant see all the code. If you are expecting $pilotid to come out of the user's session, you would be better off retrieving it as $_SESSION['pilotid'] as the method you currently use is relying on register_globals being enabled, which is a security risk.

Actually, this issue was resolved, sorry for not putting the resolved tag on it. I had one mistake somewhere and it was found and fixed.
