Need Help With Redirect That Uses Session Variable

Question

I am new to dynamic sites, php, and developer toolbox, but I have been able to create a login site using the different form wizards fairly easily (in CS3 with Developers toolbox).
<br />
<br />I am trying to set a server behavior on a page that redirects the user to a new page if a session variable matches a recordset.
<br />
<br />I was using an extension (PHP Sessions - http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&amp;extid=681308 ) that worked great, but when I installed developers toolbox, it stopped working (get error message about runtime/MX environment).
<br />
<br />Ive been struggling for days and this is what Ive come up with so far:
<br />------------------------------------
<br />session_start();
<br />if (!isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$_SESSION['kt_firstname']]) || $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$_SESSION['kt_firstname']] = $row_Recordsetfname['firstname']) {
<br /> header ("Location: ../firstname/firstname1.php");
<br />}
<br />------------------------------------
<br />
<br />It redirects regardless of the match. Any ideas on what I can do to get this working? Here is all of the code (with block from above inserted) up until the doc type:

<br /><?php require_once('../Connections/project1.php'); ?>
