Hi here is what i need to do. There is a login on my page and it is in one of the table row. The thing i need to do is when i login,  the input boxes needs to disappear and infos from the member appears instead. how is the best thing to do this.

[chronister]

[code]
<?php

if($_SESSION['login']){ // you may need to change this to reflect your login variable

//user is logged in, query and get their information

}else{

//show login form

}

?>

[/code]

[trq]

A simple example.

[code]
<?php
  if (isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])) {
    // echo user details.
  } else {
    // echo form
  }
?>[/code]

and this is the code for the second page cause when you login you get to the profile page:
[code] <?php
session_start();

include 'db_conn.php';

$_SESSION['Username']=$_POST["Username"];
$_SESSION['Password']=$_POST["Password"];

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username =  '" .$_SESSION['Username']."' AND Password = '".$_SESSION['Password']."' " );

$Userv = mysql_num_rows($result);

if($Userv == 0)

echo "There was an error in your login!!";

else

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

$_SESSION['Username']=$row['Username'];
$_SESSION['Game_Handle']=$row['Game_Handle'];
$_SESSION['Steam_ID']=$row['Steam_ID'];

echo '<form action="/index.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="login" value="1" /></form>';
echo "
<table border='0' align='center'>
<tr>
<td>Username : </td>
<td>" . $_SESSION['Username'] . "</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Game Handle :  </td>
<td>" .$_SESSION['Game_Handle']  . "</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Steam_ID :  </td>
<td>" . $_SESSION['Steam_ID'] . "</td>
</tr>
</table>";
}
?>[/code]

Anyone can help me out here pls

[chronister]

The usernames are not integers so they are never going to be > 0

You could use strlen to see if the login string length is greater than 0... but

try this
[code]
<?php
session_start();

$_SESSION['login'] = $_POST["login"];

if (isset($_SESSION['login'])){
echo "<table border='0' align='center'>
<tr>
<td>Username : </td>
<td>" . $_SESSION['Username'] . "</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Game Handle :  </td>
<td>" . $_SESSION['Game_Handle'] . "</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Steam_ID :  </td>
<td>" . $_SESSION['Steam_ID'] . "</td>
</tr>
</table>";
}else{
echo '<form action="/profil.php" method="post">
<table width="232" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr valign="top">
          <td width="21">
<p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"><img src="images/index_12.gif" width=21 height=20 alt=""></td>

i tried it but not working ty anyway

[chronister]

you are trying to set the session var to the value of your submit button, set it to the username field

change [code]$_SESSION['login'] = $_POST["login"];[/code]


to [code]$_SESSION['login'] = $_POST["Username"];[/code]


and it works fine

I tested it on my server and the form disappeared and I got

Username : 
Game Handle :
Steam_ID:


You may want to change $_SESSION['login'] to $_SESSION['Username'] because having a session var with the value of a submit button makes no sense to me.
