Store data upon login for later use

[Pavlos1316]

hi

 

How do i get to store data like username and email upon login,

so when a member submits a form

username is posted in mysql db among the other info of the form so I know who submited it

and use the email to send him the result.

 

thanks

allready use

 

session_regenerate_id();
$member=mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$_SESSION['SESS_ ID']=$member['ID'];
//Write session to disc
session_write_close();
header("location: member-index.php");
exit();

 

to know that user is authendicated.. how can i use that to have my info stored?

You have already stored your information as $_SESSION['SESS_ ID']. You can use this variable in any script, as long as you have called session_start() earlier in that script.

ok.. i use the below to sent email after registration.

 

$subject="$yoursite Registration";
$message="Dear $Name, 

Welcome $Username

Your are now a registered member of $yoursite


For any information you need or any suggestion to make
just contact us at $youremail

Thank you,
$webmaster";

mail($E_mail, $subject, $message, "From: $yoursite<$youremail>\nX-Mailer:PHP/" .phpversion());

 

How do i combine this with $_SESSION['SESS_ ID'] to send user an email when submiting the form?

[Pavlos1316]

I use this on the top of my page where I have my form

 

//Start session
session_start();
//Check whether the session variable
//SESS_MEMBER_ID is present or not
if(!isset($_SESSION['SESS_ID']) || (trim($_SESSION['SESS_ID'])=='')){
header("location: http://www.sonophoenix.com/");
exit();
}

 

How do i set the email function now to send email to the current user?
