You are not using the session variables correctly, for example in your code above I notice you do this:

<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['BusinessName'];
?>

All the code does is start the session, you only need to use session_start(); once when you want to use sessions. In your code you use it more than once. But having $_SESSION['BusinessName']; on its own directly after session_start(); does nothing.

 

When you want to use the 'BuisnessName' session variable you use $_SESSION['BusinessName'] variable, not $BusinessName or $_SESSION['$BusinessName'] variables as I have seen you use a few times in your code.

 

So if you make a few corrections here an there you code should work how you want it.

You are getting there but you are still not accessing your variables correctly. For example these lines:

session_start();
$_SESSION['BusinessName'] ='$BusinessName';
$_SESSION['BusinessName'];

 

Should be just lthis:

session_start();

You don't need to initialize your variable yet. You do that later on in your code. Which will be this section:

if(isset($_SESSION['$BusinessName'])){
$query = "SELECT * FROM business_info WHERE `BusinessName`='".$_SESSION['$BusinessName']."'";

 

BUt here you are using the wrong of sort of syntax for using your session variable. You should use $_SESSION['BusinessName'] not $_SESSION['$BusinessName']

 

And then further on down this:

<?php
$_SESSION['BusinessName'];
?>
          <tr>
            <td valign="top" bgcolor="#f90102">   <?php
				  echo "<h1><font color='ffffff'><marquee>$BusinessName </marquee></font></h1>"; ?>
</td>
          </tr>

Can be just this:

<tr>
            <td valign="top" bgcolor="#f90102">   <?php
				  echo "<h1><font color='ffffff'><marquee>{$_SESSION['BusinessName']}</marquee></font></h1>"; ?>
</td>
          </tr>

Ok this line:

 

 

 

is stoping the database from displaying any data

<?php

session_start();

$_SESSION['BusinessName'] ='$BusinessName';

$_SESSION['BusinessName'];

 

?>

 

and here is the raw code so maybe i can get a better idea on this.

 

this code actually display nicely just the way it is, i just want to create the BusinessName Session

which has turn into a headache

 

 


<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#E5E5E5" topmargin="0">
<?php

$host = "localhost";
$username = "townsfin_localho";
$password = "abc123";
$database = "townsfin_contacts";

$db = mysql_connect($host, $username, $password) or die(mysql_error()); 
mysql_select_db($database) or die(mysql_error()); 

if(isset($_GET['BusinessName'])){ 


$query = "SELECT * FROM business_info WHERE `BusinessName`= '$BusinessName' "; 
$result = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); 

$BusinessName= ($row['BusinessName']); 
$Keyword =($row['Keyword']); 
$Picture1 =  ($row['Picture1']); 
$Headline = ($row['Headline']); 
$Slogan2 = ($row['Slogan2']); 
$Description1 =($row['Description1']); 
$Description2 = ($row['Description2']); 
$Description3= ($row['Description3']); 
$Contact2 =  ($row['Contact2']); 
$Picture2 = ($row['Picture2']); 
$Picture3 = ($row['Picture3']); 
$Business_Address=($row['Business_Address']); 
$make=($row['make']); 
$type=($row['type']); 
$Tel=($row['Tel']); 
$Website=($row['Website']); 
} 
?>
