Uhhhh so what's the parse error when logging in?

stoodder · 03-15-2003, 02:02 AM

well i figuered out part of it
setcookie("LoggedIn, TRUE, time()+(3600 * 24)); was suppoesed to be
setcookie('LoggedIn', 'TRUE', time()+(3600 * 24));

but i still get this new error:
Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/stoodder/public_html/myweb6/index.php:8) in /home/stoodder/public_html/myweb6/login2.php on line 13

You need to set the cookies before anything is sent to the browser, and as you didn't inlcude the source for common.php, I assume you send some html to the browser with that.

hmm uh i dont really get what your saying sory./.. buit common .php has my database info in it thats all. otherwise i use index,php as my template file then i have ?page=whatever page to include into index.php im not sure if that is what you meant though please word that better.. sorry im slow lol

From what I understand, that error means that whatever you're trying to send to the client already exists, or that you're trying to set cookies/sessions after html has been sent, ie:

<html>
<head>
<title>page</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
setcookie("LoggedIn, TRUE, time()+(3600 * 24));
echo 'blah blah';
?>
</body>
</html>
