what im trying to do:
1. register
2.login
3.go to "my profile" where user are able to edit their username, password and so on.

my problem:
i have success to do the register n login page, but after login, the page "my profile couldn't show all the details that the user had key in in the register page.

*all the data had been stored in the database, there is no problem for register and login page. the only problem is i coundn't call out all the details into "my profile" page when the particular user login.

hi..

i can understand ur prob..

after loggin in, did u put your username into the session variable ?

if the login is successful, put the username in the session variable, then redirect the user to the profile page..

there u can get the user name from the session variable, use it in the query to get their own profile , then display..

i hope u understand.. :)

im using dreamweaver cs3, is there any example of doing it that i can refer to?i have put the username in the session variable, i can login and whn i login, it is empty but only a "my profile" show on that page. below are the coding for "my profile" page:

while($myfetch=mysql_fetch_array($fetch)){

$id = $myfetch[userId];
}
