Starting Session Problem
Im having a small problem with a login script. When a user logs in the session is not stored, however if they log in again their session is started. I do not understand why, it is not every single time but almost every time.
On my login page it works something like this after the user hits the submit button.
PHP Code:
session_start();
...
//query to check user
...
$hour = time() + 3600;
setcookie(iSearchNotes, $UserName, $hour);
setcookie(iSearchNotes, $pass, $hour);
$_SESSION["UserName"] = $UserName;
$_SESSION["UserId"] = $uID;
//forward to main page.
then on the rest of the pages it will look like
PHP Code:
session_start();
...
if(isset($_SESSION['UserName']) and $_SESSION['UserName'] != '' and isset($_SESSION['UserId'])) {
echo 'Welcome '.$_SESSION['UserName'].'- <a href="user_logout.php">Log out</a>';
..
This check almost always fails on the first login. Anyone see why this is? Also you can try it out at iSearchNotes.com - Make Your Notes Searchable |
