going to flip out

[jkewlo]

i dont understand sessions

 

and how it is supposed to store the username etc...

 

session_start();

session['username'];

session['leve'];

 

on the profile page i have

 

session_start();

 

all in <? ?> tags

 

then i have a if statement

 

if($_SESSION['level'] = 3){

echo "<a href=admin.php>Admin</a>";

}

 

but it displays that no matter what user i sign in with

 

i cleared my cookies closed firefox refreshed the browser

 

im going nuts.

 

sad thing this isnt even my project

and if it was i woudltn be using MS Access etiher

<?php

if($_SESSION['level'] == "3"){
echo "<a href=admin.php>Admin[/url]";
}

?>

[jkewlo]

try

<?php
print_r($_SESSION);
?>

and see what it says in there

[darkfreaks]

echo out the sesion variable what is being displayed? ???

[jkewlo]

Array ( [Auth] => tester1 )

[darkfreaks]

<?php

$level= isset($_SESSION['level']);

if($level=="3") {

echo"<a href=admin.php>Admin[/url]";
}

?>

 

 

 

[cooldude832]

that don't' work

$level = isset($_SESSION['level']); will return a 0 or1 on success of isset function

 

the problem is you aren't setting the variable $_SESSION['level'];

so maybe you should set it first and then try and use it.

..i was right the first time

 

<?php

if($_SESSION['level'] == "3"){
echo "<a href=admin.php>Admin[/url]";
}

elseif($_SESSION['level'] == "2"){ //dostuff
}

elseif($_SESSION['level'] == "1"){ //dostuff
}?>

 

?>
