it isnt that hard to do.. if you can get "student" and "supervisor" to
successfully log into the web pages (even if you dont have anything to
display) then all you really need to do is this:
suppose that you had $user for username in the form and $password in the
form for password...
do this:
/*after all of the sql login/query is done and checking user names do
this:*/
if($user=="student"){
include("scriptname.php");
}elseif($user=="supervisor"){
include("scriptname.php");
}else{
print"an error message here";
}
/*end*/
dont know if this would help i would need to see your actual login page and
the script that drives the login sequence before i could really tell what to
do for it..it all depends on how you have it set up..and are you getting
usernames from a sql table or is it hard coded into the login script??let me know and mail me private off list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want help... laters ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Howlett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 01, 2003 10:45 AM Subject: [PHP] Calling other php scripts from inside a php script. > Hi, > > I am new to PHP and I am writing a script that evaluates input from a form > then calls other PHP scripts depending on the input it receives. > > The login form is very simple and asks the user to enter a username and a > password.
