[FX.php List] Session variable losing its value

[Bob Patin]

Since I moved my sites to a new server, I've had a problem with one  
of the sites:

The site uses a merchant gateway; a fee is passed from a session  
variable; if the card declines, they go back to a decline page, where  
I used to show a message that said

Your charge of <session variable> was not authorized.

However, for whatever reason, the session variable's empty; since  
nothing changed on the site, other than moving it to another machine,  
is there a setting in PHP preferences that might cause this to happen.

The page before the transaction POST does have session_start() at the  
top, as does the decline page. This worked fine in the past; I  
suspect it's a PHP setting that needs to be changed on the new  
machine, but what?

Thanks,

Bob Patin
