I have a strange problem. When a guest visits my contact-user.php page, they get a message telling them the must login before viewing the page. After the guest logs in, they view the same page and it tells them they have to login again (keeps on looping). But if they manually refresh that page with the "you must be logged in" message, it recognizes the login and lets them in. How can I get this page to immediately recognize that the user is logged in and not require them to refresh the page manually? Here is my code for contact-user.php <?php session_start(); header("Cache-Control: private, max-age=10800, pre-check=10800"); header("Pragma: private"); header("Expires: " . date(DATE_RFC822,strtotime("+2 day"))); include("connection.php"); mysql_select_db("database"); if (isset($_SESSION['username'])) { ******** MY HTML PAGE CONTENT ******** } else { echo "<meta http-equiv='REFRESH' content='2;url=http://www.mysite.com/login.php'> <center><font color='#EE0000'><p>You must be logged in before negotiating. You will now be redirect to the login page.</p></font></center>"; } ?> Here is my code for login.php script: <?php include("connection.php"); mysql_select_db("database"); session_start(); if(isset($_POST['login'])){ $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); $tUnixTime = time(); $sGMTMySqlString = gmdate("Y-m-d H:i:s", $tUnixTime); if (!$username || !$password) { print "Please fill out all fields."; exit; } $logres = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE username = '$username' and password = '$password'")); if ($logres <= 0) { print "Login failed. If you have not already, please signup. Otherwise, check your spelling and login again."; exit; } else { $_SESSION['username'] = $username; if (isset($_SESSION)) { echo'You are now logging in'; mysql_query("UPDATE members SET activity = '$sGMTMySqlString' WHERE username = '$username'"); } else { echo "You are not logged in!"; } echo'<html><head><meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="1;url=http://www.mysite.com/members/' . $_SESSION['username'] . '/"></head><body></body></html>'; exit; } } ?>
