Thank You Jason for replying back.
I am still new to this and sometimes it is hard to ask question because I
don't know all the terms or how to word my problem.
Ok I switch my php.ini to error reporting to maximum (error_reporting =
E_ALL) and write off the bat I got this error message.
Notice: Undefined index: Submit in c:\program files\apache
group\apache\htdocs\sunwestsilver\admin\tmp3hdt979rwz.php on line 5
My code at that line is:
# // This section is only run when the form has been submitted
# if($HTTP_POST_VARS['Submit']=='Login') (This is line 5)
# {
# session_start();
# // Check whether the login details are correct, and put
# // the user status into a session variable.
# $statusCheck = check_login($HTTP_POST_VARS);
# if ($statusCheck == "Admin" || $statusCheck == "Staff")
# {
# session_register("statusCheck");
# header("Location: menu.php");
# }
# }

This make sense. I will try this. I got the code from "Dreamweaver MX: PHP
web Dev" book and I double checked to make sure everything was type right,
I good. I can't write code out right from the head yet. Remember I still
new to this and I am learning by reading code and try to visualize what is
going on and now learning to troubleshoot. ;-)
