Good thanks again. There's only 1 thing i can't manage to do: how can i pass the IDUser to my recordset?

So in the page i would see "Welcome, username!" once a user logs in, and the session of that user starts.

Sorry again if i'm a noob but i've just started learning something about php but probably this is beyond my skills for now ;(

The user name is easy:

<p>Welcome, <?php echo $_SESSION['MM_Username']; ?>! </p>

To get the IDuser add the code below in red:

$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $amontech) or die(mysql_error());

$IDuser = mysql_fetch_assoc($LoginRS);

$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);

Then create a SESSION variable for the IDuser

$_SESSION['IDuser'] = $IDuser['IDuser'];

$_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;

$_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;

$_SESSION['logged_in'] = "Logged In";

Then you can just echo it out:

<?php echo $_SESSION['IDuser'] ?>
