creating and checking session problems

[blink359]

Hi there i have made a  mistake setting or checking my sessions and was not sure what it is because i cant reach my locked content

 

Creating:

session_start();
if ($role="valiant") {
$_SESSION["username"] =="valiant";
header("location: 1/index.php");
}elseif($role="vulcan") {
$_SESSION["username"] =="vulcan";
header("location: 2/index.php");
}else{
echo "Wrong Username or Password";
}

Checking:

<?php

// Inialize session
session_start();

// Check, if username session is NOT set then this page will jump to login page
if (!isset($_SESSION['username']) || $_SESSION['username'] != "valiant") {
header("location:../index.php");
}

?>

//OR

<?php

// Inialize session
session_start();

// Check, if username session is NOT set then this page will jump to login page
if (!isset($_SESSION['username']) || $_SESSION['username'] != "vulcan") {
header("location:../index.php");
}

?>

Any help will be great

 

Thanks,

You have your = and == mixed up

 

if ($role=="valiant") {$_SESSION["username"] ="valiant";

header("location: 1/index.php");

}elseif($role=="vulcan") {

$_SESSION["username"] ="vulcan";
