There's an error in the comment posted by "someone at the dot inter dot net". Correct replacement for function session_is_registered() in PHP 5.4+ is
function session_is_registered($x) {return isset($_SESSION[$x]);}
so just $x instead of '$x' - single quotation mark won't interpolate the variable $x and the function will always return false.
session_is_registered
(PHP 4, PHP 5 < 5.4.0)

session_is_registered() returns TRUE if there is a
global variable with the name name registered in
the current session, FALSE otherwise.
Примітки
Зауваження:
If $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS for PHP 4.0.6 or less) is used, use isset() to check a variable is registered in $_SESSION.
Застереження
If you are using $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS), do not use session_register(), session_is_registered() and session_unregister().

session_register() function is generating warnings. Therefore, instead of using:
<?php
$test = 'Here';
session_register('test');
?>
It is better :
<?php
$_SESSION['test'] = 'Here';
?>

When using PHP 4.2.0 even on the same page where you registered the variable with:
session_register("someVar");
if you try to see if the variable is set and do not assign it a value before, the function used in the previous comment will give the same output.
This may show that the variable is declared and will not be set until some value is give assign to it.
I think that this way will give the option to register all the variables used for sure on the process on the first page and using them as the time comes.

For those who have an older application which uses the session_is_registered..and you want to use that in php5.4
You can just define the function if required
function session_is_registered($x)
{
if (isset($_SESSION['$x']))
return true;
else
return false;
}
May be add the checks to ensure function is not already existing..

A simple one-line function to emulate this in later versions of PHP:
function session_is_registered($x){return isset($_SESSION['$x']);}

The proper equivalent has nothing to do with isset().
Use array_key_exists() because session_is_registered returns true if the variable is in the session at all, even if it's falsy.

I can not get the following code to work as it is returning an error on the session_is_registered() and do I have to change anything else in the code
Thank you
if(!session_is_registered('user_name')){
if (isset($_POST['username'])) {
$password1 = clean($_POST["password"]);
$username1 = clean($_POST["username"]);
$password2 = crypt($password1);
$result = @mysql_query ("select * from users where user_name = '".$username1."'");
$lim = @mysql_num_rows( $result );
//|| (strlen($username1) < 6) || (strlen($password1) < 6)
if( ($lim!=0) ){
$row = @mysql_fetch_array($result);
$password=$row['user_password'];
if (crypt($password1, $password) == $password){
$sql = @mysql_query ("insert into logs (ip, cdate, status) values ('".$REMOTE_ADDR."','". date("Y-m-d H:i:s") ."', 'Login')");
session_register('user_id');
session_register('user_fullname');
session_register('user_name');
$_SESSION['user_name'] = $row['user_name'];
$_SESSION['user_fullname'] = $row['user_fullname'];
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $row['user_id'];
}//if crypt
else{
