I think I’ve got it. I’ve removed all the requests and did some other tweaks and the username is now displayed in the welcome message. This is how I have set the session :

$_SESSION['UserName'] = $UserName;
$message = "Welcome ".$UserName."

I’ve tested the session using :

<?php 
 session_start(); 
 Print_r ($_SESSION);
 ?> 

I can now use that session in every page provided I add session_start(); ?

Also do I need session_start(); on the page in which I first create the session?
