What you mean? Do you mean that data are not being stored in the sessions? Or where and what is wrong? Is it giving something error? And finally why are you using such sessions and why do u need to store those values in the sessions?

user submits form
if there is error it will tell them to go back
when they go back all the fields are empty
I need it so that the forms are filled with info they submitted

Why dont you submit the form on the same page so that you can use $_POST global array for getting submitted values?
