I am trying to login and then show the welcome screen on successful login. After successful login validation i store a variable in session.
However, when i move from login screen to the welcome screen i am unable to retrieve the session variable value
Here is the code snippet.
in sevaklogin.php
--------------------
// Connect to the database
$link = connectToDB();
$submit = $_REQUEST['submit'];
if($submit){
session_start();
$email = $_REQUEST['email'];
$password = $_REQUEST['password'];
$query = "select * from sevaks where email ='$email' and password='$password'";
//echo $query;
$result = mysql_query($query);
//echo $result;
/* make sure data was retrieved */
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
//echo $numrows;
if ($numrows == 0) {
echo "Incorrect email or password. Try again!";
$_SESSION['permission'] = '';
} else {
$permission="yes";
while($sevaks = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$user_name = $sevaks["user name"];
print "Welcome " .$user_name;
$yatra = $sevaks["yatra"];
print " from " .$sevaks["yatra"] . " yatra";
$role = $sevaks["role"];
print " as " .$sevaks["role"] ;
print " email " .$email;
// $_SESSION['permission'] = $permission;
// $_SESSION['email'] = $email;
// $_SESSION['user_name'] = $user_name;
// $_SESSION['yatra'] = $yatra;
// $_SESSION['role'] = $role;
}
session_register('permission');
session_register('email');
session_register('user_name');
session_register('yatra');
session_register('role');
$URL="welcomesevak.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
exit;
break;
}
}

} else {
echo "User session expired. Please login again.";
print "<a href='sevaklogin.php'> Sevak Login</a>";
}

The value of variable "permission" set in sevaklogin.php is is not accessible in the welcomesevak.php
In welcome.php the variable comes as blank.
What i am doing incorrectly?
