I am a PHP learner, and I have got some problems with PHP sessions.
I am trying to do a simple login test, but it seems as session variables wont follow when I direct to another page. The two important files:
Check login:
<html>
<head>
<title>
<?php
session_start();
?>
</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
if(!connection)
{
die("could not connect to the database");
}
mysql_selectdb("phplogin", $connection) or die ("MySQL error i valg af database: " .mysql_error());
$query = "Select * from users where username='".$_POST['username']."' AND password = '".$_POST['userpass']."'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);
if($count==1){
$_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "true";
echo "The variable: ".$_SESSION['loggedIn'];
header("Location: loggedinPage.php");
exit;
}
if(!$count == 1){
header("Location:Login.php");
exit;
}
?>
</body>
and the acces page:
<html>
<head>
<title>
<?php
session_start();
?>
</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
if($_SESSION['loggedIn'] != "true"){
echo "You are NOT logged in";
echo $_SESSION['loggedIn'];
exit;
}
echo $_SESSION['loggedIn'];
echo "You are logged in";
?>
</body>
Even though you give correct user and password, it still says that you are NOT logged in when directed to the new page.
Another thing is the "header(Location: etc. etc)", this wont work, I have to redirect manually.
Any help :)?

Thanks, I got the logging in to work now, but the redirection still wont work? my file looks like this now:
<?php
session_start();
?>
<?php
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
if(!connection)
{
die();
}
mysql_selectdb("phplogin", $connection) or die ("MySQL error i valg af database: " .mysql_error());
$query = "Select * from users where username='".$_POST['username']."' AND password = '".$_POST['userpass']."'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);
if($count==1){
$_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "true";
header("Location: loggedinPage.php");
}
if(!$count == 1){
header("Location:Login.php");
}
?>
<head>
<title>
</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
