RE: log in script kicks me out

I have attempted to use session_write_close() but it makes no difference. Thanks for your help. Any other ideas I might be be able to try? Upon doing a quick search using something like "$_SESSION second time" I see that there are a number of others who seem to have similar problems, and no solutions. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 7:08 AM Irm Jr wrote: > Each page checks for a particular session variable, if it isn't set to > a particular value, the intruder is kicked out to the login form and > asked to log in. > > The problem is this: > > On the production machine, even with a correct username and password > (i.e. a successful login), the user is ALWAYS kicked back out and > asked to log in.

Use session_write_close() before your header() redirection. -- ---John Holmes...
