this is the username/password validation script which receives the user name
and password from a regular form
and they are sent correctly
logme_in.php

<?php
session_start();
$username = trim(addslashes($_POST['user_name']));
$pass = trim(addslashes($_POST['password']));
if((empty($_POST['user_name'])) || (empty($_POST['password'])))
{
header('Location: index.php');
include("login_form");
exit();
}
else{
include("db.php");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM members_webdata WHERE user_name='".$username."'
AND password='".$pass."'";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$num_return = mysql_num_rows($result);
if($num_return ==1)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$_SESSION['uname'] = $row['user_name'];
echo "<a href=\"members/main.php\">"."CLICK HERE TO GO TO MEMBERS SECTION";
echo "</a>";
//session_write_close();
// header('Location: members/main.php'."?_SESSION['uname']=".
$row['user_name']);
}
else {
}
}
?>
//========================================================================
this is the page I try to open after logging in but it behaves like if I'm
not logged at all
members/main.php
//========================================================================
<?php session_start();
$user_name = $_SESSION['uname'];
if(empty($user_name))
{header('Location: ../../login_first.php');
exit();
