Easy as pie.
Check out the following link for a short intro to Sessions
http://codewalkers.com/tutorials/32/1.html ... and keep clicking next 
For a little more advanced tutorial on using sessions for user handling
http://www.sitepoint.com/article/us...-sessions-mysql
You can use cookies, but the $_SESSIOn global array is the better method as far as I'm concerned. just assign strings directly to the session super gloabl array.
Code:
session_start();
$_SESSION["test_variable"] = "Manchester Unites Rule";
on another page to get the value of the session variable just use something like
Code:
session_start();
print $_SESSION["test_variable"];
