Session tracking prooblem in all pages of my website

jehan

:mad:
I am starting session in l"ogin.php",
My “login.php” Script is following

<?php
session_start();

if (!isset($_SESSION['name']))
 {
                     $_SESSION['name'] =  “Bob”;
	  include ('main.php');
       }
   else
        {
                  include ('main.php');} 
 }

?>[/COLOR]

In “main.php” I can easily track session by

   [COLOR=RoyalBlue] <?  echo $_SESSION['name'];  ?>[/COLOR]     // work fine
                                                             // output  “Bob”

But problem arising when I want to call “news.php” from “main.php” there I can’t track session by

          [COLOR=RoyalBlue] <?  echo $_SESSION['name'];  ?>  [/COLOR] // Not working,
                                                                 //output  “ ”

Please write code that I can track session in all pages of my website.

I think your problem is this:
In every page you want to use session, you have to start_session()
Like you do in 'login.php'

Remember: You should try to put session_start() as close as possible
to beginning of a page. Best is as First Line

Example

<?php
session_start();

$name = isset($_SESSION['name']) ? $_SESSION['name'] : 'Guest';

?>
<html><body>
Welcome <b><?php echo $name ?></b>!
</body></html>

My problem solved, but when i am navigating to any page from login.php and when i want to navigate back history.back() to login.php i am getting following warning message.

Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your information for you.

To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh button.

after refreshing i am getting this alert message
"The page cannot be refresh without resending information, click retry to send information again. or click cancel, what to do ..........

note (i did not changed login.php Code )
