Re: PHP Sessions?

The problem there is that I have to test if the user has logged on so I 
need to include the if statement? Can the session_start not be called 
from within an if statement? Does it really have to be the very first 
thing in the script, if so I imagine that this means a single script 
cannot be used to manage a complete website?

Put session_start(); at the *very* beginning of your script. See if that
helps.
