I have an array that I want on multiple pages, so I made it a SESSION array. I want to add a series of names and then on another page, I want to be able to use a foreach loop to echo out all the names in that array.

This is the session:

$_SESSION['names']

I want to add a series of names to that array using array_push like this:

array_push($_SESSION['names'],$name);

I am getting this error:

array_push() [function.array-push]: First argument should be an array

Can I use array_push to put multiple values into that array? Or perhaps there is a better, more efficient way of doing what I am trying to achieve?
