}
}
if (isset($_SESSION['username'])){
$username = $_SESSION['username'];
echo "Hai " . $username . "
";
echo "This is the Members Area";
}


?>
</body>
</html>

I am having the following error.

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''users' WHERE 'username' = jerry AND 'password' = 12345' at line 1

Can someone please help me out regarding this?

Try this:

$query_one = "SELECT * FROM 'users' WHERE 'username' = '".$username."' AND 'password' = '".$password."'";

@lps: The single quotes around the table and column names are wrong. Either remove them or use backticks.

thank you buddy! its being solved! .. :)
