fugix Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 i would change your login success page to this // Check if session is not registered , redirect back to main page. // Put this code in first line of web page. <?php session_start(); if(!empty($myusername) && !empty($mypassword)){ $_SESSION['myusername'] =$myusername; $_SESSION['mypassword'] =$mypassword; } if(!isset($_SESSION['myusername']) || !isset($_SESSION['mypassword'])){ header("location:main_login.php"); } ?> <html> <body> Login Successful </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fugix Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 have you tried debugging your script..echoing you sessions to make sure they are set, checking your queries etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudduth66 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thank You for your time and suggestions i think i got it figured out it is a database connection problem. i found a script to connect to mysql that asks for db name, host, user, password and it does the same thing so i believe it is a connection problem. I hope. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sudduth66 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thank you fugix for all your help the line of code u gave me was the fix. I just didn't have my php.ini set up correct once it was fixed it all worked. i had way to much running in the extensions i guess i started over with a new copy and only opened the mysql extension and it all works now with your code add in. Again thank you so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
