regester session variables

[schoch]

I can view the username, but the password cannot be displayed on the page.
This is a login form and I want to be able to display the password on one of the interior restricted pages. however it doesn't seem to be registering the variable.

<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.
session_start();

$loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($accesscheck)) {
  $GLOBALS['PrevUrl'] = $accesscheck;
  session_register('PrevUrl');
}

if (isset($_POST['username'])) {
  $loginUsername=$_POST['username'];
  $password=$_POST['password'];
  $MM_fldUserAuthorization = "usergroup";
  $MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "admin_menu.php";
  $MM_redirectLoginFailed = "login.php";
  $MM_redirecttoReferrer = false;
  mysql_select_db($database_voip, $voip);
  	
  $LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT franchisee_name, franchisee_code, usergroup FROM franchisee WHERE franchisee_name='%s' AND franchisee_code='%s'",
  get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? $loginUsername : addslashes($loginUsername), get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? $password : addslashes($password)); 
   
  $LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $voip) or die(mysql_error());
  $loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
  if ($loginFoundUser) {
    
    $loginStrGroup  = mysql_result($LoginRS,0,'usergroup');
    
    $GLOBALS['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
	    $GLOBALS['MM_Password'] = $password;
   $GLOBALS['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;	      

    //register the session variables
    session_register("MM_Username");
	    session_register("MM_Password");
   session_register("MM_UserGroup");

    if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) {
      $MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];	
    }
    header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess );
  }
  else {
    header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed );
  }
}
?>

Then when I go to display the session variable I use

<?php echo $_SESSION['MM_Password']; ?>

you are using dreamweaver. and an old version at that. you really must not. this is the third question you have asked in this forum that leads from a use of Dreamweaver occluding the real functionality of php from you.

you are also using addslashes() for database escaping rather than mysql_escape_string or mysql_real_escape_string.

this usage

session_register("MM_Username");

is deprecated (and has been deprecated for quite some time). read the manual on this.

the reason, I would hazard, that your variables are not showing up in the reserved pages is because you have not assigned any value to the variable. instead of the code above I would use

$_SESSION['MM_Username"] = $GLOBALS['MM_Username'];
