    <p>I'm having a problem where my session variables aren't getting set/saved.</p> <p>Here is my code:</p> <p>index.php has:</p> <pre><code>&lt;? //this is first line of page session_start(); ?&gt; &lt;form action="admin_process_login.php" method="post"&gt; &lt;p&gt;EMAIL&lt;/p&gt;&lt;input name="email" type="text"&gt; &lt;p&gt;PASSWORD&lt;/p&gt;&lt;input name="password" type="password" /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Enter"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>admin_process_login.php</p> <pre><code>&lt;? //this is first line of page session_start(); $useremail = $_POST['email']; $postpassword = $_POST['password']; include('admin_config.php'); if ($postpassword != "" &amp;&amp; $useremail != "") { //Connect to database mysql_connect("localhost", $dbusr, $dbpass) or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("studioel_dental") or die(mysql_error()); //Look for a matching email/password $query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE users.email = '$useremail' AND users.password = '$postpassword'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); if(mysql_num_rows($result)==0){ header("Location: http://www.dentalbenefitprogram.com/admin.php?error=nomatch"); } else { //set session variables and load supplies page $uid = $row['id']; $unamex = $row['name']; $uemailx = $row['email']; $utypex = $row['type']; $_SESSION['userid']=$uid; $_SESSION['uname']=$unamex; $_SESSION['uemail']=$uemailx; $_SESSION['utype']=$utypex; header("Location: http://www.dentalbenefitprogram.com/admin_groups.php"); exit; }; } else { //email or password fields were blank. Return to login page header("Location: http://www.dentalbenefitprogram.com/admin.php?error=blank"); }; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>You can probably guess: the session variables aren't being set...</p> <p>Any help is appreciated greatly!</p>

    1. COThis normally works, please create a test script only initializing a session, setting a session variable and doing a redirect. Test if it works (or not), if it does not work, replace your code here, as it contains much more than you're asking about. If it works, please rephrase your question.

    2. COOops. I'm an idiot. Let me withdraw my question. Thanks for the help finding it though, Hakre. I forgot to make a while loop after getting my results from the database. Sorry (feeling sheepish).

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
