what errors are you getting?

[simonb]

um

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: virtual() in /home/betanew/public_html/henry/admin/login.php on line 1

this is what's going on:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: virtual() in /home/betanew/public_html/henry/admin/login.php on line 1

Your code is calling a function which either doesn't exist or it can't find.

A simple google search for "php virtual" gives this page:
http://uk2.php.net/function.virtual

And by the looks of it, virtual() is an apache function so you'll probably get an error if you're trying to run this code on IIS.

i put a include() tag and now look

session_start(); has to be the very first thing it loads and since you are including a page that has headers ... it doesn't like it.

the first 3 is a problem loading your include file ... check the path. You can't do include(/include/ ... ) it has to be something like include(../include/...)

[simonb]

ok i have got rid of the includes

but look now

[spinal007]

look where?
do you have a link for this?

[simonb]

oh sorry
http://henry.noloafing.co.uk/admin/login.php

Here's your answer, exactly what Karinne said:

That was a joke mate.
We can't help if you say you 'got a big error'
What was the error?

PROBLEM 1:
You're trying to include a file that can't be found.

I'm assuming your folder structure is...
{ROOT}/Connections/
{ROOT}/admin/
{ROOT}/etc/

So,
<?php virtual('/Connections/working.php'); ?>
LOOKS FOR: {ROOT}/Connections/working.php
But this only works on Apache.

<?php include('/Connections/working.php'); ?>
LOOKS FOR: {ROOT}/admin//Connections/working.php
Which is probably what you have at the moment.

<?php include('../Connections/working.php'); ?>
LOOKS FOR: {ROOT}/Connections/working.php
BINGO!

PROBLEM 2:
Look for session_start(); in ALL your code and make sure there's only ONE.

PROBLEM 3:
You're never gonna get the hang of this if you don't try. Just mess about with the code and it will work. This is a simple enough problem that any PHPer wannabe should be able to solve, specially after the pointers we've already given. There is a lot of people in this forum willing to help but we can't spoon-feed you all the way along...
I mean this nicely, with lots of love and sugar on top! LOL

BINGO!

Didn't I say that already?!

[spinal007]

I know... and when I read your post I thought it would be the end of this thread but here we are....

which is why I made a point of mentioning PROBLEM 3 (see previous post)

[simonb]

i got it to work

[spinal007]

Well done...
