cookies, sessions?

[skyloon]

i use php and work with wml.
any solution that can pass the value to every page after login?
for example, when i login with ABC, then the ABC will display in every page like "Welcome ABC"
as i know WML can't work with cookies, can it work with sessions?
or any other solution?
or something like $HTTP_GET_VARS ???

i'm not too sure what WML or whatever is but i know that if you store the user name, etc. into MYSQL database or something similiar to it you can just call the information back to every page.

something similiar to:
$name = "SELECT * FROM nameDirectory WHERE password='whatever'";
$result = mysql_query($name) or die("failed to query name");
$temp = mysql_fetch_array($result);
extract($temp);
$userName = $temp[name];

you could easily just make that a functuon and call it at the top of every page...hope this helped (assuming this was your question 😉 )

If you use htaccess for authentication you could use $HTTP_AUTH_USER.

i have tried to put the session_start() to every pages and login with ABC, but the output for welcome.php is "c38634edaf64b39db68276113a976449", not ABC.
i run this script in nokia mobile browser, not in IE, will it affect the result?

You need to register username to the session in Verify.php by adding $_SESSION['username'] = $username; to the bit that shows the successful login card.

And then you need to stop overwritting it in welcome.php whre you have $_SESSION['username'] = session_id();
