[SOLVED] User login time..

[phpSensei]

How can I register a session for a certan amount of time?

 

I have registered the user first, but then I want the user to be logged in evertime he or she comes to my website...

 

how?

 

thanks for any help..

 

here is my code

 

include("connect1.php");

$username=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
$password=md5($_POST['password']);

$rec=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM member WHERE username='$username' AND password = '$password'");
$rec2=mysql_fetch_array($rec);

if(empty($username) || empty($password)){

die(header("Location: http://localhost/phpROK/index.php?page=home&t=3"));

}
elseif(($rec2['username']==$username)&&($rec2['password']==$password)){

session_start();

$_SESSION['username'] = $_POST['username'];

header("Location: http://localhost/phpROK/index.php?page=home");

}

else

header("Location: http://localhost/phpROK/index.php?page=home&t=1");

?>

SESSION['length'] = time() + 1400;

 

Maybe? (replace 1400 w/ number)

Is this Good?

$_SESSION['length'] = time() + 1400;

If you want the user to be logged in whenever they come to your website, look into cookies. Sessions are destroyed when the browser is closed, therefore, if you just use sessions, a user will have to log in each time they come to your website after closing their browser.
