PHP Sessions help...

[D-Man22]

Okay... so... The sessions are not staying when a user logs in...

here's my "login.php"

<? session_start();
include('database.php');
    require "functions.all.php";
if(!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])){
            if(!isset($_POST['loginOK'])){
                    displayLoginForm();
                     //Probably gonna call a display class here
                  }else{
 
     
                        processLogin();
                            

}
         }else{  echo "Hello, ".$_SESSION[user].". And welcome to the user system."; }
           ?>

here is the 2 functions....

function displayLoginForm()
{
   echo '<div style="padding-left: 5px;">
    

<form method="post" name="loginForm" onsubmit="myHabbio.__doLogin();return false;"> 
  <b>Username:</b><br /> <input type="text" name="username" id="username" class="oo" /><br />
  <b>Password:</b><br /> <input type="password" name="password" id="password" class="oo" /><br />
  
   <input type="submit" id="loginOK" style="margin-top:3px;" value="Login &raquo;" name="sOK" onclick="myHabbio.__doLogin();return false;" class="oo" /> or FB_connect()<br />
   No account? <a href="my1/register.php">Register for free!</a>
</form>
</div>
';


}

function processLogin() {
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = sha1($_POST[password]);
$exsists = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `username`='" . $username . "'"));
               if($exsists == 0){ throwLoginError('Incorrect username/password</b><br />Please try again'); }
                  else{  $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users
                                     WHERE username='$username'") or die();  
                                        $row = mysql_fetch_array( $result );
                                              $password1 = sha1($row[password]);
                                              if($password == $password1){ $_SESSION['user'] = $username; $_SESSION['loggedin'] == 1; 
//I have ^^ The sessions set there... but when the user reloads the page, it displays the login form =/
displayUserBox();

 }else{ throwLoginError('Incorrect username/password</b><br />Please try again'); }
                              }


} 

When a user logs in; i have it set the sessions and display the "userbox".... but when I refresh the page, the login form is displayed... even though the seesions were already set. HELP :/

Looking at the code this is for a retro then? or am i wrong?

No? It's for a fansite if you have to know.

[Trigs]

Do you have session_start(); in the file with the functions as well? I think you need to global it as well but I'm not sure as I've never tried to set a session within a function.

disregard above,

$_SESSION['loggedin'] == 1

should be 1 =
