Shouldn't that be:
$email = Session::get['email'];

How to populate session data in form elements
In controller, if I have model populated following
{{Former::open->method('get')}}
{{Former::text('email')}}
{{former::close}}
text box is populated with email, but for now I want to populate with session data instead of model . Any idea who to bind form element with session data. I am using Former form library and laravel4. Any help is appreciated.
tried creating a variable and assign it to blade but not working
$email = $sessinfo['email'];
return View::make('test',compact('email'))

No it's not working , I am trying to populate the form field while click Back button which is redirecting me using {{URL::previous()}}

Don't totally understand what uou are after, but are you sure you are storing correctly in session?
Comment out you return view line and try
$email = Session::get['email'];
echo $email;
Make sure you actually have value stored in the session.

Yes, session values are correctly added and removed. I can use the session variables in my program further. I guess this issue is more with Former form library for laravel which is used for displaying form and it's element.
