[php-list] Help

[fremaje31]

I hope someone can help me with this issue.

I'm working on this project with another person.  They are away today 
and I need to findout what happened.  The login doesn't work.  Below 
is the php code.



<?
include '../include/open_con.php';

if (session_is_registered("session_admin")){
        header('location: home.php');
        exit;
}

if($_REQUEST["login"] == "1"){
        $error_msg="";
        if(trim($_REQUEST["username"])=="")
        $error_msg .="- Enter valid user name.";
        if(trim($_REQUEST["password"])=="")
        $error_msg .=" <br>- Enter valid password.";
        
        if($error_msg==""){             
                $sql="SELECT * FROM mbc_administrator WHERE username 
= '".$_REQUEST["username"]."' and `password` = '".$_REQUEST
["password"]."' AND status = 1 ";
                
                $query=mysql_query($sql)or die(mysql_error());
                
                if(mysql_num_rows($query) > 0 ){
                        $row=mysql_fetch_array($query);
                        $_SESSION["session_admin"]=$row["username"];
                        $_SESSION["session_admin_id"]=$row["id"];
                        $_SESSION["session_admin_type"]=$row["type"];
                 if($_REQUEST["rem"] == "1"){
                        @setcookie("cook_user_name", $row
["username"], time() + 2419200);
                        @setcookie("cook_user_pass", base64_encode
($row["password"]), time() + 2419200);
                 }
                 else{
                        @setcookie("cook_user_name", "", time() + 
2419200);
                        @setcookie("cook_user_pass", "", time() + 
2419200);
                 }
                 header('location: home.php');
                }else{ 
                        $error_msg .="- User Name or Password is 
Incorrect.";
                }// Inner If
        }
}//
if(isset($_REQUEST["msg"])){
$error_msg="- Please login first.";
}

I'm getting this alert "Error:
- Please login first."

I'm using the correct username and password.

The login is not working for the users website as well.

Please give me any suggesetions you might have.

I'm open to paying someone to fix this issue for me.  I need this 
project finished yesterday.
