[RESOLVED] login problem

[techgnome]

Looking at what code you provided for login.php, you didn't call session_start(). You have to call this on every page that you intend to set or retrieve $_SESSION variables.
Otherwise, if you're getting redirected (meaning your login was successful), $_SESSION['user'] and ['userid'] should work.

I thought the same thing too... but it's in top.php...

hello,

at the top of the top.php page i have

<?php
session_start();
$username = $_SESSION['username'];
$userid = $_SESSION['userid'];
?>

if all pages include top.php, then the session should be started, and he's able to read the session data...
