[SOLVED] question

[justAnoob]

This script works on all my pages on the site I'm working on....except for 1 page... I don't understand why... Yes,, I have session_start(); at the top of the page. I know this is not in detail,, but maybe someone has had the same prob..

<?php
        if(isset($_SESSION['auth']))
        {
      		unset($_SESSION['message']);
	    sleep(3);
		echo ($_SESSION['goodlog'] . '<a href="logout.php">Log out');
	}
        else
        {
      		echo '<form name="form1" method="post" action="login.php">
			  <input name="username" type="text" id="username" />
			  <input name="password" type="password" id="password" />
			  <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Login">
			  </form>';
  	      }
	    ?>

Um... what's not working? I can't tell what's wrong if you just posted your code without stating the problem. Saying it doesn't work doesn't mean anything.

 

One thing I see is that the anchor tag is not closed in your echo.

It always shows the log in form(on my problem page) even if I signed in back at the hompage. But all the other pages have this exact same code and they function just fine.

What's the difference between the page not working and the ones that do? More code would be helpful!

[justAnoob]

That is the problem,, there really isn't one,, the code is identical....The strange thing is that the log in form appears on the page that is having the problem, so I sign in again and it returns me to the homepage. Then if I click on the link again to go back to the problem page, everything is ok... So the scripts only work when I sign in from the problem page.

Here is the problem page form.

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="login.php">
            <div align="center">
              <div align="center">
                <?php
        if(!isset($_SESSION['auth']))
	{
		echo ($_SESSION['message']);
	}
	?>
                <?php
        if(isset($_SESSION['goodreg']))
	{
		unset($_SESSION['message']);
		echo ($_SESSION['goodreg']);
	}
	?>
                <br>
                <?php
        if(isset($_SESSION['auth']))
        {
      		unset($_SESSION['message']);
	    sleep(3);
		echo ($_SESSION['goodlog'] . '<a href="logout.php">Log out');
	}
        else
        {
      		echo '<form name="form1" method="post" action="login.php">
			  <input name="username" type="text" id="username" />
			  <input name="password" type="password" id="password" />
			  <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Login">
			  </form>';
  	      }
	    ?>
                <br />
              </div>
            </div>
          </form>

 

And here is the form from the homepage and all the other pages that work fine.

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="login.php">
    <div align="center">
      
      <div align="center">
        <?php
        if(!isset($_SESSION['auth']))
	{
		echo ($_SESSION['message']);
	}
	?>
        <?php
        if(isset($_SESSION['goodreg']))
	{
		unset($_SESSION['message']);
		echo ($_SESSION['goodreg']);
	}
	?>
          <br>
          <?php
        if(isset($_SESSION['auth']))
        {
      		unset($_SESSION['message']);
	    sleep(3);
		echo ($_SESSION['goodlog'] . '<a href="logout.php">Log out');
	}
        else
        {
      		echo '<form name="form1" method="post" action="login.php">
			  <input name="username" type="text" id="username" />
			  <input name="password" type="password" id="password" />
			  <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Login">
			  </form>';
  	      }
	    ?>
          <br />
        </div>
    </div>
  </form>

This is really strange, or maybe it is something I do not know about...

 

Here is the link on my homepage that takes my to the page that I'm having problems with.

<?php
echo substr($row['description'],0,50).'<a href="http://------.com/viewitem.php?id_main='.$row['id'].'"> ...View</a>';
?>

With the code above,,, even when I'm signed in and click on the link,, it takes me to the page but as I mentioned earlier in this thread,,, it still shows the log in form...  Now check out the code below....

 

<?php
echo '<a href="viewitem.php"><img src="images/my_btn.png" width="91" height="20" border="0">';
?>

Now if I just put in a picture with a link to replace the original code above,, it takes me to the page just fine with no problems.. What is causing the problems with the first line of code???
