@chrisranjanaMar 29.2012 — #Are you setting the username in the PHP session ? If you can show me the code you are using for logging in the user I can give you some hints.

@fightapilotdeanauthorMar 29.2012 — #this is the code that i have on my login page (login.php)

<?php

mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error());

mysql_select_db("my_db") or die(mysql_error());

if(isset($_COOKIE['ID_my_site']))

{

$username = $_COOKIE['ID_my_site'];

$check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username'")or die(mysql_error());

  }
  $check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '".$_POST['username']."'")or die(mysql_error());

$check2 = mysql_num_rows($check);

if ($check2 == 0) {

die('That user does not exist in our database. <a href=add.php>Click Here to Register</a>');

}

while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $check ))

{

$_POST['pass'] = stripslashes($_POST['pass']);

$info['password'] = stripslashes($info['password']);

$_POST['pass'] = md5($_POST['pass']);

if ($_POST['pass'] != $info['password']) {
   die('Incorrect password, please try again.');
  }

else

{

 $_POST['username'] = stripslashes($_POST['username']); 
   $hour = time() + 3600;

setcookie(ID_my_site, $_POST['username'], $hour);

setcookie(Key_my_site, $_POST['pass'], $hour);

//then redirect them to the members area
