Sessions & Functions
Hey all i have a question.
I aint all that strong on using sessions.
I am trying to set a session using a function on a login page. When the user clicks login it it will trigger a PHP function and that function will set the session.
PHP Code:
function loginUser($username,$password){
$username = mysql_real_escape_string($username);
$password = mysql_real_escape_string($password);
$query = "SELECT * FROM example WHERE username='".$username."' AND password=PASSWORD('$password')";
$query = mysql_query($query);
$number = mysql_num_rows($query);
if($number < 1){
echo "Incorrect Login Information";
}
else{
$_SESSION["logged"] = $username;
echo "You are now logged in <a href=index.php> Click Here </a>";
}
}
I have placed the session_start() on the login page, the function itself is in a function file am i missing something? |
