Hi,
I'm trying to create a separate usernames with the same login page using php and MySQL. I have tried adding different things to my login code for it to work but no progress. Basically i want to create something like this:
A staff would be able to have a username and password and be directed to the staff page and the student would be able to have a username and password and be directed to the student page and the admin would be able to have a username and password and be directed to the admin page. But what i'm getting right now is everyone that is a staff, admin or student is being directed to only the student page.
This is my code if anyone can help me out please that would be really nice..
main_login.php
<table width="300" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="checklogin.php">
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><strong>Member Login </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="78">Username</td>
<td width="6">:</td>
<td width="294"><input name="myusername" type="text" id="myusername"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password</td>
<td>:</td>
<td><input name="mypassword" type="text" id="mypassword"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>checklogin.php
