[Chameleon] widget question...

[Paul Spencer]

Jeremy,

the reason why you are not seeing anything in the session is that the  
session is not started automagically.  You need to include  
session.inc.php (see the BoundingBoxPopup widget for an example).

Note that you need to pass the session id to your script as well.   
You can echo SID at the php level or access a form variable called  
SID (or is it sid?) in javascript to create an appropriate link.

Note that being new to php may make this a bit painful :)

Paul
