I'm pretty new to PHP and all that crap, but for some reason I'm having problems storing session variables (yes, I have started a session). Here's some example code:

if(isset($_POST['Submit']))
		{
			if ($_POST['username'] == ADMIN_USERNAME && $_POST['password'] == ADMIN_PASSWORD)
			{
				$_SESSION['AdminLogged'] == true;
				header('Location: '. $this->mReturnPage);
				exit;
			}
			else
				$this->mLoginMessage = "<br />Login failed. Please enter the correct user and pass.";
		}

For some reason when I execute this by entering the correct details and posting the form, the session variable isn't stored and so it returns to the login page??

i hesitate in helping you based on the title of this thread...


but your problem is this:

$_SESSION['AdminLogged'] == true;

"==" is a boolean comparison.
"=" is a variable assignment.

When did gay become a description that can be used for bad things, I have heard this as the case elsewhere.

Yes for camp or girly. Celebrity magazines are gay. Big Brother is gay. Tom Cruise is gay.

Would you say nigger session variables?

isset($_SESSION['Gay']);

[d*d]

considering gay used to mean happy and jovial I can't see why it now shouldn't be used in another way, stop bieng so pc - it's gay

Not just the use of equality instead of assignment, but you'll probably want to call session_write_close() before you send you're header and exit.
