I set up a login page, user/password (MySQL) to limit access to managers to a restricted page on our company intranet. The login page works correctly but I noticed that the restricted page can be accessed directly by entering the URL.
So I used the "restrict access to page" server behavior to eliminate this problem and direct users to the login page. I set up an "access" field in MySQL using "manager" to restrict access to the managers page.
This works when directly using the URL but now the user/password doesn't work on the login page. Every time I use a correct user/password it keeps directing back to the login page and now can't access the restricted page.
Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004, Apache 2.2.9, MySQL 5.0.67, PHP 5.2.6

Sorry for my first post in this forum,
Ok I already reach the same problem like yours and this problem can be solved by activate the register_globals = Off (by default configuration) to register_globals = On in the php.ini file.
You can find this file under the folder conf_files in easyphp for example.
Try again and good luck !

Thanks
This solved the problem. I had triple checked the procedures I used to set up login and restrict access and figured it had to be in the PHP programming but didn't know where to go from there.
Thanks again.
