note 83714 added to ref.session

question: Lets say I have a MYSQL table called "users". I've created a registration page that inputs their name, password, email, etcl. I want to have a login form on my index. If somebody is already logged in, I don't want the form to show, I want it to say "Logged in as - "userName"". I figured I could use sessions. Like: session_start(); if (!isset($_SESSION['SESS_MEMBER_ID'])) { show "logged in as" } else { show form} Is this right? I cant seem to get it to work. ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 24.16.35.32 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/83714 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83714 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/83714 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
