  file1.php starts a session and sets a session variable say,var.
  I am able to access var using $_SESSION['var'] in file2.php. file3.php is called using jquery ajax functionality, but im unable to access $_SESSION['var'] in file3.php. if i do a gettype($_SESSION['var']) in file3.php it returns NULL.
  What could be the problem here ?</p>
