Give something like this a try, I broke your code down so it's easier to read. I took out a bunch of the echos and prints and just used HTML code instead.

<?php
if(mysql_num_rows($sql) > 0){
   
   // Loop through the results
   while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
      $username = $row['username'];
      $password = $row['password'];
      $email = $row['email'];
      
   if ($username == lady1)
       { ?>

      click, click > <a href='crew2.php'>here</a> <

  <?php    }
else
      {
         
      } ?>

     <b>Admin name</b>:<b><font face='Tahoma' size='3'> $username</font></b> <hr size=1>

                     <br>Adm Pass: $password
                     <br>Adm email: $email
<?php
      if($i % $tblWidth ){
    ?>
         <td align='center' valign='top' bgcolor='#F2F2F2'><?php echo $all_stuff; ?></td>
<?php
      }else{
         //else then print column number 2 etc for the next loop.
?>
         </tr><tr>
         <td align='center' cellpadding='10' valign='top' bgcolor='#F2F2F2'><?php echo $all_stuff; ?></td>
<?php
      }
      //add only 1 for the loop ($i).
      $i++; ?>

 

I don't know how you have your table set up, I'm assuming that you have omitted some of that code.

#1 you're trying to compare 'lady1' as a string NOT a constant to the $username variable which means you should encase that string with quotes..

 

#2 when a user logs in you should store their username and other often used information in a session...

 

so if you do store them in a session

 

if ($_SESSION['username'] == 'lady1') {

}

Try this

 

if ($_SESSION['MM_Username'] = "your_username") { ?> MESSAGE TO BE DISPLAYED <?php } ?>

hi,

 

if i try the session one:

 

if ($_SESSION['username'] == 'lady1') {

}

 

      click, click > <a href='crew2.php'>here</a> <

 

all user display the link text  3 times now. in that case what is the conclusion?
