I am currently creating a website that will allow the user to log in using a username only, no password is required. Once the user has typed their name into the form, their name should then be placed on all of the pages they then visit until they log out.
I am having problems with this as it, 1) Not showing in the browser correctly (I will provide images below) 2) Not forwarding me to the Home Page.
<?php
session_save_path("/aber/sec17/public_html/cs25010/tmp");
session_start();
if ($username == NULL) {
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$_SESSION["username"] = $_POST["username"];
header("Location: home.php");
}
}
?>
