The code shown as <?php session_start(); ?> does not work because the use of “?>” tells the browser to to quit looking for more PHP code.
By using “<?php session_start();” the browser will just accept it as another line of PHP code.
Also, “<?php” may already be present, in which case you just need to add “session_start();” somewhere after that. The “<?php” tells the broswer where to start looking for PHP code.
Hope that helps.
