Read the tutorials as rajarajan07 suggested, but for a quick answer to your question, if you just add

<?php
session_start();
?>

to the top of home.php, you should be able to use the variable $_SESSIOIN. Remember to sanitize the $_POST data before you use it though.

Note* You should have the session_start() code at the top of every page you intent to use session data with.

i think this code help you
First send the variable to a script
<form method="post" action="array_script.php">
0.<br/>
<input type="text" name="first_name"/><br/><br/>

<input type="submit" name="submit"/> </form>
Move $_POST variable contents into $_SESSION
I will always need to call "session_start()" to use $_SESSION

<?php session_start();

$_SESSION = $_POST;

?>

Above I called the the session_start() function, created a session variable, and set that variable the values sent over via POST. Now I can access that $_SESSION variable from any page on my server.
Accessing $_SESSION Variable
I will always need to call "session_start()" to use $_SESSION

<?php session_start();

$first_name = $_SESSION

echo $first_name;
