There is no "Dreamweaver style" for setting up a session
variable. You
do it in exactly the same way as for any PHP page. Put this
at the
beginning of the page:
session_start();
Retrieve the value that you want from the recordset and
assign it to a
session variable like this:
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $row_recordsetName['user_id'];
