Making an access level? (Wont work need help)

[dual_alliance]

Ok well l have this code:

[code=php:0]<?php
session_start();
// Has the user logged in?
if(!isset($_SESSION['username'])){
echo 'You are not logged in!';
// Quit the code so they can't view anything else!
exit;
}

$accessLevel = $_SESSION['alevel'];

// Does the user have admin previlages?
if("$accessLevel" !== 9){

echo 'You do not have permission to access the admin control panel!';

}else{

[/code]

Before you ask sessions are working as l have the print_r function on the session to make sure its working and it prints out:

InArray ( [userid] => 8 [username] => dual_alliance [alevel] => 9 )

So l'm not sure why its not working.  Could anyone shed some light on this ?

Thanks,

usergroup levels are done in sessions? i thought they were done in bitwise?

[dual_alliance]

Well l'm making a CMS system so l'm going to have like:

9 = Admin
1 = Guest
2 = Validating

etc....

And l have the usergroup as 9 and its being compared to the number 9 so why won't it work ???  And also when they login l have it so all the static MySQL data in the database is made into sessions.

i think you can only do usergroups in bitwise dude

[dual_alliance]

Dude like what are you on?!?  You have just been posting useless coments!

I fixed it myself.  And you [b]dont[/b] need bitwise!

I just had to change [code=php:0]!==[/code] to [code=php:0]!=[/code] and now it works.

I think you forgot an exit; right after the echo, you could rather try using die("You do not have permission to access the admin control panel!");

Try doing it this way

[code=php:0]
<?php
if ($accessLevel != 9) {

    die("You do not have access to the admin panel!");

}
?>
[/code]
