[SOLVED] Different page for different user after login

[black_box]

I m new in PHP i m making a new system to learn PHP ..

 

i want to make a login page and every user will use the same page for login. when they will give user id and password and the system will automatically show different page for different user.

 

Sample:

 

Admin will automatically redirect to admin.php page

 

User will automatically redirect to user.php page.

 

Any idea and sample code for it ?? please help me out

<?php
if ($_SESSION[loggedin]=="true"){

header("Location: user.php");}

elseif ($_SESSION[loggedin]=="true"||$usertype=="admin"){
header("Location: admin.php");}?>

<?php
if ($_SESSION[loggedin]=="true"){

header("Location: user.php");}

elseif ($_SESSION[loggedin]=="true"||$usertype=="admin"){
header("Location: admin.php");}?>

 

It should be 'loggedin' and not loggedin unless you have a constant named loggedin.

I m really sorry to inform u that i m new in this PHP ..

 

I made a database those columns are: id, name, pass & user right

 

when they give the id and pass then the database will compare them and redirect to the desired page.

 

any code for it ?? do i need cookie for it??

Yes, it works! Easy and safe too.

But...

Imagine 2 user:

admin/password

and

Mister/password2

If I log in like (example) admin/password and I will be redirect to admin.php, then I will have free access to the page Mister.php (if I know it)!

How can I do to limit admin to stay in admin pages and Mister to surf only Mister pages?

Thank you...
