   unset($_SESSION['basic_is_logged_in']);
}
session_start();
$errorMessage = '';
if (isset($_POST['name']) && isset($_POST['id'])) {
mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'jackson');
mysql_select_db('praveen');
$user = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM `users` WHERE `users`.`id` = '$_POST[id]'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array( $user );
$name = $_POST['name'];
$fetch = $row['name'];
if ( $name == $fetch ) {
$_SESSION['basic_is_logged_in'] = true;
header('Location: display.php');

You also need to clean your variables before putting them into mySQL. Your password is known as id. This is confusing. Which id do you want to pass? The primary key id of the user or the password? I assume the former, but ...?

thanks for breaking head on my confusing code
i got it working with the use of

$id = $_SESSION['id'];

in the session start page, then

$_SESSION['id']= $id;

in the session page and got the data to be transferred to next page.
any way thanks for helping me
