maybe you guys can tell me why this is failing.

 

<?php
session_start();

if(isset($_SESSION['username']) && isset($_SESSION['password']))
{
	$username = $_SESSION['username'];
	$password = md5($_SESSION['password']);

	include dbconnect.php;

	$query = "select * from users where username = '$username'";

	$result = mysql_query($query) or die("Error with session login name/password.");

	$user = mysql_fetch_row($result);

	if($password == $user[1])
		$_SESSION['loggedin'] = "true";

	else
		$_SESSION['loggedin'] = "false";

	include 'closedb.php';
}
else
{
	$_SESSION['loggedin'] = "false";
}
?>

change this:

<?php
if($_SESSION['loggedin'] == "true")
{
	echo ("<h1>Welcome $_SESSION['username']!</h1>");
} 
else
{
	echo ("<h1>Welcome! (please log in)</h1>");
}

echo ("$_SESSION['loggedin']");
?>

 

to this:

 

<?php
if($_SESSION['loggedin'] == "true")
{
	echo ("<h1>Welcome ".$_SESSION['username']."!</h1>");
} 
else
{
	echo ("<h1>Welcome! (please log in)</h1>");
}

echo ($_SESSION['loggedin']);
?>

 

when using echo, you need to seperate functions of php with text... basically by following this format:

echo "blah text".function['blah']."more text";

 

try that and get back to us  :)
