fugix Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 i would change your login success page to this // Check if session is not registered , redirect back to main page. // Put this code in first line of web page. <?php session_start(); if(!empty($myusername) && !empty($mypassword)){ $_SESSION['myusername'] =$myusername; $_SESSION['mypassword'] =$mypassword; } if(!isset($_SESSION['myusername']) || !isset($_SESSION['mypassword'])){ header("location:main_login.php"); } ?> <html> <body> Login Successful </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237527-login-screen-help/#findComment-1220575 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sudduth66 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thank You for your time and suggestions i think i got it figured out it is a database connection problem. i found a script to connect to mysql that asks for db name, host, user, password and it does the same thing so i believe it is a connection problem. I hope. lol Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237527-login-screen-help/#findComment-1220606 Share on other sites More sharing options...
