problem with isset 1

[danno74]

Greetings,

I am writing a software download page for our campus, where after it authenticates the account in LDAP, then sends you to a page based on your affiliation as either a student or staff member.

Once the account is verified, I use header to redirect to the download page. Here is the code:

<?php
session_start();

if (isset($_SESSION['fullname']))

echo "You win!!!!!!! ";
echo 'Welcome ', $_SESSION['fullname'], '!';
echo $_Session['fullname'];
include('downloads.php')

if (!isset($_SESSION['fullname']))

header("Location: [URL unfurl="true"]http://www/index.php");[/URL]

?>

I tried putting curly braces on both if statements and get this error:

[Tue Apr 21 10:43:47 2009] [error] [client ] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /web/shtml-docs/obcr/swdl/success.php on line 10, referer:

https://www/obcr/swdl/

When I take them out I get this:

[Tue Apr 21 10:44:19 2009] [error] [client ] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF in /web/shtml-docs/obcr/swdl/success.php on line 11, referer:

What's the deal? I'm fairly new with PHP so I'm assuming some sorta stupid formatting error?

Thanks for your help.

In PHP you use periods to concatenate, variables are case sensitive, and if you want your If statements to execute more than one of the follwing commands then you need to surround them with curly braces.

<?php
session_start();

if (isset($_SESSION['fullname']))[red]{[/red]

echo "You win!!!!!!! ";
echo 'Welcome '[red].[/red] $_SESSION['fullname'][red].[/red] '!';
echo $_[red]SESSION[/red]['fullname'];
include('downloads.php')
[red]}[/red]

if (!isset($_SESSION['fullname']))[red]{[/red]

header("Location: [URL unfurl="true"]http://www/index.php");[/URL]
[red]}[/red]
?>

Your errors basically stemmed from your malformed echo statements.

Still gives me the error:

[Tue Apr 21 14:53:34 2009] [error] [client 129.3.72.161] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /web/shtml-docs/obcr/swdl/success.php on line 10, referer:

Any other ideas?

You are missing a semi colon after your include.

echo $_SESSION['fullname'];
include('downloads.php')[red];[/red]
}

Missed it the first time.

See, I told you it was stupid formatting issues. I'll get this right someday... thanks Phil.
