please help me in this
I am using the dream weaver cs4
I designed the navigation bar to my page using dream weaver cs4
navigation bar contains Home, Retail Contact Us
In my retail.php when user login he goes to the second.php
but i need to pass this user name using cookies to the second.php
the thing is when user successfully logged in he will be in the second.php now from second.php when the user again clicks on the Retail.php i.e retail tab in the navigation bar with out logging out
then it should display Welcome message instead the old
if the user logouts and clicks on the retail tab then it should display all the input fields again for the user to login newly again
hope u understand my doubt
here is my code

if(their login is correct){

Now whenever they go to another page, you just put in the
session_start(); and then you can echo
$_SESSION['user'] wherever you want and it should have their username. As long as they keep their browser open it will save their username. You can then just use session_destroy(); if they click the logout button. However, if they close their browser and then open it again they will have to login again (which is how you should design your site anyways). Let me know if you need some more help, give me some code if you need syntax help.
on login page use this
setcookie("user", 'ravii', time()+3600);
//on second page
if(isset($_COOKIE['user'])) {
echo 'Welcome ', $_COOKIE['user'];
}
else {
header("Location: page1.php");
exit;
}
hope this will help you
