weird sessions problem

[quote author="sandwormusmc" date="1199412108"]So what happens when you:

Code:

print_r($AdminMsg[$code]['AdminMsg_Msg']);

[/quote]

the message gets printed ok

[quote author="sandwormusmc" date="1199412108"]
Also, shouldn't the following have a $this-> preceding the CI?

Code:

$CI->session->set_userdata('msg', $str);

[/quote]

the function is in a helper file. that is the reason $CI is used instead of $this

again, this works with most messages, but not all
