print "Sesion has expired.";
exit;
}
$stat = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select * from players where email='$email' and pass='$pass'"));

if (empty ($stat[id])) {
print "Invalid login.";
exit;
}
$ctime = time();
mysql_query("update players set lpv=$ctime where id=$stat[id]");

$ip = "$HTTP_SERVER_VARS[REMOTE_ADDR]";
mysql_query("update players set ip='$ip' where id=$stat[id]");
mysql_query("update players set page='$title' where id=$stat[id]");
?>

" Well Please guys i need help...!! Please reply asap " thanks.. Sal

Due to a restriction in the HTTP Protocol, YOU HAVE TO SEND COOKIES AND OTHER HEADER DATA BEFORE ANY OUTPUT. The best way I can think of doing that without to many drastic changes would be to move the first php line to the very top. If that chnges the overall output, then put it back and add <?php ob_start(); ?> to the very top, which tells PHP to hold onto output until ob_flush(), ob_end() or the end of the script is encountered, thereby allowing you to define cookies where you want. BTW, ob stands for Output Buffering, in case you were interested.

Oh god! PLEASE PLEASE could i have that Exofusion release? It seems to be the only one in existance!
