Hi all: Php newbie here. I've been using ASP and VB for some time. Now, I'm moving to the open source side of things. I'm also re-creating a database driven site made in php/mysql. I just need a short explanation (btw, I have a book larry ullman's php and mysql for dynamic pages). In asp I code a log-in page and then from there, I show data depending on user log-in. I want to make a log-in form for the site admin. This person handles all content on the site, admins can create more admins, but there is one superadmin. Now one thing confuses me, what is all this talk about sessions? I know in asp I use sessions to pass variables to different pages. How does this relate to php? I've tried to look at some pre-made scripts, but they seem a bit over my head. Can I not have session and cookies in my log-in page? TIA. -Weng php-objects@yahoogroups.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
