This question is more appropriate for the PHP list. Here is an example:
// if row exists - login/pass is correct if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 1) { // initiate a session session_start(); // register the user's ID and permission level list($uid, $uperms) = mysql_fetch_row($result); $_SESSION{UID} = '$uid'; $_SESSION{UPERMS} = '$uperms'; // redirect to main menu page header("Location:menu.php"); mysql_free_result ($result); // close connection mysql_close($connection); } else // login/pass check failed { mysql_free_result ($result); mysql_close($connection); // redirect to error page header("Location: error.php?e=0"); exit; } -Steve --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
