True I have not explicitly not used cookies.  I don't consider this an 
issue, do you ? Won't the PHP session object handle cases where cookies 
are disallowed. Maybe that's a wrong assumption of mine leftover from 
JSP class.

You got that right, I'd say. Thanks for the explanation.

display_errors is on and set to 8. Is that different than E_ALL?(by the 
time you answer I will have investigated) Thanks for the heads up. I 
changed to E_ALL and restarted Apache and still can't get a warning or 
error. (I will try harder when I have time)

OOOh that's cold. I hope you mean verify which code I'm writing is 
good. : )
