Login page:
// suppose that user login was verified // Following code have to be executed only if user is valid session_start(); session_register("user","user_email"); //register here all needed data. //In this case, it will register $user and $user_email in the session Put the following in session.inc and include session.inc on top of each script that has to be run for logged users session_readonly(); if((!session_is_registered("user")) || (!session_is_registered("user_email"))) header("Location: login.php"); This will redirect user to the login page if not logged in. If he was logged, script will go on and you can access $user and $user_email. Any change of their value will not be saved in the session Tom PS: in my PHP version 4.04 , function session_readonly() is unknown. What I use instead is: session_start(); .... session_write_close(); //session_end is also unknown by 4.0.4 Dima Dubin wrote: > Hello Tom > > I looked in the manual for session_readonly because its basicly what I need > : 1 login page, and the just read the session data in other pages.... > but, there is no examples or anything like that in the manual could you > please show me a little example how to use it on my pages ? > > THANKS !! > Dima. > > "Tom Mikulecky" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > Hi > > > > PHP's sessions are blocking, i.e. until a session is closed, all other > calls to > > session_start() are pending.
