I have a issue after logging into my site and click a link it changes the username to the last user to log onto the site.. I have deleted the session files but no diffrence.. i have also user diffrent PC's and browsers but same issue! getting me stressed! it's got to be sumet simple im missing but really can't understand!

index.php
[a href=\"http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/index.phps\" target=\"_blank\"]http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/index.phps[/a]

profiles/login.php
[a href=\"http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/profiles/upload.phps\" target=\"_blank\"]http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/profiles/upload.phps[/a]

You can test this @ [a href=\"http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/[/a]
user: test
pass: user

Please let me in on any ideas you have!

Regards
Liam

Sorry my bad i put the upload.phps instead of the actual login.php that deals with the username/password..

[a href=\"http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/profiles/login.phps\" target=\"_blank\"]http://blucode.sytes.net/ukchat/profiles/login.phps[/a]

I haven't seen anything obvious yet.

I would change this bit though

[code]if ($password !== $user['password']) {
$error="Password invalid for $username";
header("location: ../index.php");
} [/code]

Remove the header() line. You redirect to index.php at the end of the script. If you do it there then the session error message doesn't get set.

hmmm any idea how this fixed it? i change $username to $imgusername and now it's all working.. i had noticed that what ever username was in the profiles list on the left hand side thats what username the session changed too... how could setting $username='matthew'; change a $_session['username'] ???
