Default my session variables not retaining values

  hi all
i have been trying to use session variables but getting no results
my site is multipage and from first page i am storing value in session variable and retrieving it back in other pages but no variable retains its value in other pages
what i did was
if

register global=Off (directive in php.ini)

$page=$_GET["page"];

/*for all other pages*/
if($page > 1)
{
session_start();
 $emp_nos = $_SESSION['MyEmpNos'];

}
else
{/*in my first page*/

  session_start();
  $_SESSION['MyEmpNos'] = $emp_nos;

}

but i am not getting MyEmpNos value retained in further pages

i tried even with
 register global= On (directive in php.ini)
and
used

session_start();
session_register();

 also

but no results then too in variable $_SESSION["MyEmpNos"];
can somebody please help.................i need it urgently ..

this code is a little hard to understand...

if ($page > 1) ... are you using negative values? When is '$page' ever less than 1? Could you post more of the code? As it is, I can't understand the logic... and, on another note & just out of curiosity, why are you placing your comments after the code for which they are meant?

the problem is:
register global=Off (directive in php.ini)

To make use of $_SESSION and other variables of similar nature, registered globals must be on.

Have fun,

no sorry you are absolutely wrong
$_SESSION[] array can be used in both cases whether register global is on or off
but the only thing is
if it is ON
we cant use $page directly
