I am trying to put ubbthreads into an existing secure site. I don't want the users to have to retype a username and password to get into the threads area and when they leave the threads area I don't want them to have to re-log in to the main site. How can I send a variable to ubbthreads (or create one) that will always be available for linking back to the main site?

I need to send the variable "hpsessid" to ubbthreads so that I can use it on the nav links that point back to the main site. I don't know much about PHP programming, but I'm trying to figure it out as I go along.

I have gotten as far as being able to send login data from the existing site to the ubbthreads site so that they are logged in. I even sent the variable hpsessid as PHPSESSID and on the main page it works, but if you go anywhere on the site and then try to hit a link pointing back to the main site, the variable doesn't exist anymore. How do I keep a variable alive to pass through to every page a person goes to?

Thanks for your help.
