I have a funciton in the begining of the page which checks that a variable
"id" is registered in a session..
in the first pagei strat a new session and set the idto 1 and register the
variable..
function set_id($user,$pwd)
{
 global $id;
 $db = new FumarelDb();

 $query="select  cod_usuario
   from  usuarios
   where username='$user' and pwd='$pwd'";

 if(!$db->query($query)>0)
  return false;

 $db->next();

 $id=$db->f("cod_usuario");
 session_start();
 session_register("id");
 return $id;
}


and then in the other page trying this way
function get_id()
{
 global $id;
 session_start();
 if(!session_is_registered("id"))
  return false;

 echo $id;
 return $id;
}
doesn't output nothing .. but changing the global line..
function get_id()
{
  session_start();
 if(!session_is_registered("id"))
  return false;
    global $id;

 echo $id;
 return $id;
}

outputs the rigth id...
Why? what am i doing wrong??
