I have a login form that I have created myself. I have errors, I can register, perfectly fine, comes up on the database. However, when I login, it directs me to 'my account' which is what it should do, yet, it says I am signed out still. It's not registering me as logged in. I'll put the sufficient files you'll need to help me. (It's the whole website page do not copy the design for your website, its copyright)

Alot of the my account page, will be a bit, screwed up. There is alot of template junk I need to get rid of. Ignore all that, just focus on the login. I don't think theres anything wrong with the myaccount page, I think it's mostly to do with check_login page, as its not checking im logged in properly. I'm guessing alot of the "&_SESSION" parts are all incorrect. I have no idea how to put it right. I coded this all out myself, I used 2 templates for login forms, I put them on my websites, and then I decided to make a more secure one that actually worked 100% The first one seemed to like, logme out alot of the times, or sometimes didn't realise I was meant to be logged in. The second, had problems with seeing if i was logged in. I then used both templates, put them both together. They both had there own errors, and weaknesses. I came up with a good design, its just not checking I'm logged in. All files are above. I'll add attachments too just incase.
If you need any other files, comment and ill put in.
Hope you can help.
Jeanie
