Problem with sessions

[dinkeshpatel]

Hi

I have created a seesion for storing the userID of a user who has logged in. The trouble is that when a another user logs in after, the details of the first user are kept.

I think either the session is not being updated, or as the data is fro userID 1, i think it is bringing that up as a defult.

The code I am useing is for the login script is,

session_start();
session_register("user_id");
$user_id = user_id;

Then to recall the userID on later pages
I use

session_start();

at the begining of the script and then, to my understanding should be able to use the variable user_id whereever I want.

If someone could tell me were I am going wrong, i would much appreiciate it !

Thanks

you have to destroy the session, on unix I think this works fine, altho I have had problems with it on windows. If you close the browser and restart it you should get a fresh session_start().
