Oops! Maybe not.
You were right! SFC = stupid flippn' coder = me! I see where you are going with this! if(isset($_SESSION['userid']) && $_SESSION['userid']!="") Not set! Duhhh! The if(isset($_SESSION['userid']) && $_SESSION['userid']!="") Was a silly attempt of mine earlier to force a session. Gone now, Let me follow your lead on your suggestions though for a few. I know just enough about php to be dangerous! I will definitely keep in mind the mysql inject problem. This could be an issue, but for now, just trying to get it to work!

Check the parameters for the cookie. If they limit the cookie to, say: http://example.com/phpbb/ instead of the whole site: http://example.com/ then your cookie isn't there, and the session will get lost with it. Probably a set_cookie_params() call somewhere in your phpbb mess. if(isset($_SESSION['userid']) && $_SESSION['userid']!="") What is this? Is the whole rest of the site passing around a ?forum=1 parameter in all its URLs? Probably not. Only phpbb is doing that. So then you never even GET to the $_SESSION check. > > { > > if(!isset($_SESSION["userid"])) > > { > <?php if(!isset($_SESSION['userid']) && $_SESSION['userid'] == > "") This is daft. !isset($x) && $x == "" If $x isn't even set, then why test it for being == to the empty string? > <?php if($_POST['hiddensubmit']){ And here you're not using isset(), so are generating E_NOTICE messages, most likely. > $get_count5 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `contest_stories` > WHERE > contest_id = '".$_POST['cid']."' AND year='2007' AND username > ='".$_SESSION["userid"]."'"); Splicing POST data directly into a query is a giant security SQL Injection attack hole. Stop coding NOW and start reading and re-reading here until you understand why: http://phpsec.org Unless you WANT your entire database wiped out or even stolen by a meanie. > echo "<font color=\"red\">You can only submit 3 stories per > contest.</a><br>"; And you might as well not bother to have a contest, as the meanie can rig it to win using the SQL injection above...
