[Resolved] code blindness...!

[TE2Consulter]

Can anyone say why this code works in my 'footer.inc' file on my website, but not in my 'header.inc'?

<?php if (isset($session['user_id']) AND (substr($SERVER['PHP_SELF'], -10) != 'logout.php')) {
echo '<a href="logout.php">Logout</a></font></div>'; } else {
echo '<a href="login.php">Login</a></font></div>'; } ?>

I use exactly the same code in both. Confused or what?

Any help welcomed.

It could have something to do with PHP variable names being case-sensitive ($session isn't the same as $SESSION). Change it to upper-case and see what happens.

what happens? What do you mean by "it doesn't work"?

can you show how the code is called?

Also, if you use $_SESSION, make sure the session is started before that in the script.

As I said 'code blindness!!'

It was the use of lower case... works great now,

thanks to all who answered.

I'm off to lie down in a dark room now
