Sessions not working??

[esport]

Hi Guys,
I am currently using sessions to store my user login. So once they login,
[code=php:0]
@session_start();
if($_POST['login']){
$_SESSION['username']=$_POST['username'];
}[/code]

But when i post a form with a feild 'username' that is not part of the login form, it changes the session vairable that was originally set. It seems the the $_POST is conflicting with the $_SESSION.

Any ideas?

[code]

<? session_start();

$username=($_POST['username']);

if($_POST['login']){
$_SESSION['username']=$username;
}

?>

[/code]

No, i can set the session OK, its when i POST a form with the same names as the sessions, it seems to be overiding the sessions with the values from the POST even tho im not setting the sessions.
