Session variables do not work as expected???

    Hi,

    I am simply trying to:
    1) set a php _SESSION variable in a function attached to the "gform_after_submission" hook
    2) retrieve that variable in the "gform_confirmation" hook.

    The session variable is never current when called upon in the confirmation hook... it's always one value older than it should be...

    I have tested that _SESSION variable is working fine if i use it in other areas of functions.php

    What is different about gravity forms that it doesn't work, and how do i access this variable!?

    I figured out this is because confirmation hook fires before the after_submission hook...

    which seems highly illogical... i need to get data created during after_submission and display it in a confirmation page....

    any ideas?

    In case anyone is wondering I moved the whole lot into the confirmation hook. This seems to be working now... Thanks for the lack of support.
