I have an index.html on my server. This is the first page of my site. At the moment it contains two <a> tags which basically a user selects to start different applications
<!--Index.html-->
<center><p style=font-size:200%><A href="javascript: void(window.open('login.php?app=partscatalogue','appwindow','location=0,scrollbars=0,menubar=0,toolbar=0,status=0,resizable=1,directories=0'))">Enter The Auto-Trail Parts Catalogue</a>
<center><p style=font-size:175%>or</p></center>
<center><p style=font-size:200%><A href="javascript: void(window.open('login.php?app=buyvehicle','appwindow','location=0,scrollbars=auto,menubar=0,toolbar=0,status=0,resizable=1,directories=0'))">Order A Mobile Home</a>
The javascript for both apps open a 2nd window (attributes dont matter at this point in time) with the login page. This page is the same for either app. The difference is in the URL (login.php?app=buyvehicle or login.php?app=partscatalogue).
This is login.php
<?php
$app = $_GET['app'];
include("auth.php");
?>
<head>
<title>Auto-Trail VR LTD - LOGGING IN</title>
<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='css\theme.css'>
</head>
<?
echo "<br><br><br><br><br><br><center><p style=font-size:200%><b><i>Welcome ".$_GLOBALS["custname"]."<br><br>Directing you to the main page, please wait!</i></b></p></center>";
echo "<META HTTP-EQUIV=refresh content=\"3; URL=".$app."\main.php\">";
?>
the authorisation and form is in the 'required script' auth.php as follows
<?php
// start session
session_start();
$sessionid = session_id();
session_register(sessionid);
// convert username and password from _POST or _SESSION
if($_POST["username"])
{
$username=$_POST["username"];
$password=$_POST["password"];
}
elseif($_SESSION["username"])
{
$username=$_SESSION["username"];
$password=$_SESSION["password"];
}
// start and register session variables
session_register("username");
session_register("password");
// connect to database
include("connect.php.inc");
// query for a user/pass match
$result=mysql_query("select customer.customerID, customer.name, customer.username, passes.password from customer, passes where customer.username='" . $username . "' and passes.password='" . $password . "'");
while ($record = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
$customerID = $record[0];
session_register(customerID);
$customername = $record[1];
$_GLOBALS["custname"] = $customername;
session_register(customername);
}
// retrieve number of rows resulted
$num=mysql_num_rows($result);
// print login form and exit if failed.
if($num < 1){
session_destroy();
?>
<head>
<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='css\theme.css'>
<title>Auto-Trail VR LTD - AUTHORISATION REQUIRED</title>
</head>
<?
echo "<body>";
echo "<br><br><br>";
echo "<form method=POST action=login.php>
<center><p style=font-size:20px><b><i>You are not authenticated, please login below.</i></b></p></center>

<center><p style=font-size:16px><i>Best viewed in 1024 x 768 resolution.</i></p></center>
</form>";
echo "</body>";
exit;
}
?>
The idea is that the application root directory will be the name of the app passed in the URL
Now for the problem
I f (for example) I chose to select the Parts Catalogue application.
login.php will be called as login.php?app=partscatalogue.
When i have completed the login process (put in password etc) the login process completes and the page forwards to the next page (if the login was incorrect; the login pge would be redisplayed) however this is where i get the Internal Server Error:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request
If i click back 2 times and refresh...the application loads up as it should do.
This happens every time i want to load the pages and scripts so i figure that there is something wrong.
Is a config error in my php.ini?
Does anyboduy have a clue??
I am using Windows 2000, Apache 1.3.23 webserver and Php 4.1.1
Thanks in advance
