[SOLVED] sessions question

[affordit]

I am using the code below to log cleints in and set session variables. I have no problem seting the name but I don't know how to set the end_date because it does not come from the posted form I guess. I am getting it from the db can someone explain how to set it the session please?

 

<?php

// this starts the session

session_start();

include("sharons_dbinfo.inc.php");

mysql_connect(mysql,$username,$password);

mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");

 

$query = "Select name, end_date from  login Where name = '$name' and psword = '$psword'";

$results = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()."<br /><br />".$query);

$num=mysql_numrows($results);

if ($num >0) {

 

 

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

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

(header("location: header.php"));

 

} else {

echo "The if statement evaluated to false";

}

?>

 

[haku]

$end_date = mysql_fetch_array($results)

 

$_SESSION['end_date'] = $end_date['end_date'];
