The session is closed, but not destroyed.  You simply have to start the
session again.  A simplified example:

step1.php
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['foo'] = 'bar';
header('Location: step2.php');
?>

step2.php
<?php
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['foo'];
?>

If you don't want to call session_start() at the beginning of each
script, you can also set session.auto_start=1 in your php.ini.  See
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.auto-start>.
