Re: Re: Help Needed

Hello All: Thanks again... I tried to use this and it is working fine for me. Please comment: <? session_start(); if (session_is_registered("valid_user"))

     include 'guest.html';

else include 'not_logged_in.php'; ?> Many Thanks -Pushpinder On Tuesday, February 4, 2003, at 12:32 PM, Goetz Lohmann wrote:

Hello All: My question is related to authentication. I have made a login system using PHP Sessions and MySQL. Once the user gets authenticated on the website I want to be able to allow him to see some html pages on the website. Only users who have logged in are able to see such a files. I have asked this question before , but still I have some doubts. My code will check for: if (session_is_registered($valid_user)) { /// display the reqd page } else { DISPLAY ERROR MESSAGE and ASK USER TO LOGIN } How should I display the page ... the page has a lot of html code and

trying to write echo "   blah  blah blah .....     ";

will not be a an option. Please suggest a way out .

you could include every page into a php script using <?php include('index.htm'); ?> this mean, that this page is like being copyed in the php file also instead of <?php echo "bla bla bla": ?> you always can do <?php ... ?> bla bla bla <?php ... ?> -- @ Goetz Lohmann, Germany | Web-Developer & Sys-Admin \/ ------------------------------------------------------ () He's the fellow that people wonder what he does and || why the company needs him, until he goes on vacation. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
