I seem to have a problem where if i set the sessions $_SESSION['team'] = "xxxx"; and then set a php variable $team = "yyy"; the php varible overides the sessions and displays either nothing or "array";

Any ideas on whats causing it???

Can you show us the exact code you are using?

Theres loads of code!..... Here's a snippet. The sessions are on a different page to the variables aswell.

PHP Code:

// User Details
$sql = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `manager__login` WHERE `username` = '" . $_SESSION['loggedin'] . "'"));
$_SESSION['id'] = $sql['id'];
$_SESSION['email'] = $sql['email'];
$_SESSION['userlevel'] = $sql['userlevel'];
$_SESSION['team_id'] = $sql['team_id'];
$_SESSION['rank'] = $sql['rank'];
$_SESSION['change_ban'] = $sql['change_ban'];
$_SESSION['joined_club'] = $sql['start'];
$_SESSION['wage'] = $sql['wage'];
$_SESSION['contract'] = $sql['contract'];
$_SESSION['experience'] = $sql['experience'];

$team_id = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `manager__applications` WHERE `team_id` = '" . $_SESSION['team_id'] . "'")); 


If i echo $_SESSION['team_id'] i get array.
