Question

I’m trying to get the username that is signed in, but it wont work. Check this:

I’ve tried:

echo $_SESSION['username']; 

and I just get the

error: Notice: Undefined index: username

I know I have a ‘variable’ that is named username…

And i’ve also tried:

echo  $_GET['username']; 

but that wont work either, same error.

And i have session_start() and I have signed in to the database

Answer 1

You need first aid. In php that is print_r

session_start();
print_r($_SESSION);

print_r will show the hole session array if username is not there, you must asign a value first to it

session_start();
$_SESSION['username'] = $_GET['username'];  // for example
