Can anyone see what’s the problem here? None of my session variable are registering.

I have tran-sid turned on. And all my php configurations look good. So the q. what am I not doing?

$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE email='$lpwemail'";
$rs = mysql_query($sql,$connection)or die("did not connect") ;
$abs = mysql_fetch_array($rs) ;

$mn = $abs['firstname'];
$em = $abs['email'];
$pw = $abs['passwd'];
$h = $abs['lpw'];
$g = $abs['lpwanw'];

session_register('$mn');
session_register('$em');
session_register('$pw');
session_register('$h');
session_register('$g');

Thanks all!

Found it,

Syntax

$_SESSION['mn'] = $mn;
$_SESSION['em'] = $em;
$_SESSION['pw'] = $pw;
$_SESSION['h'] = $h;
$_SESSION['g'] = $g;
