Username integration

[livewiremaxx]

Ive gone through many of the posts and still didnt get it, so thougght I would ask and share my details and see if I can get it right. I have a script that users already log into - Simple login with session.

With a shoutbox, and a Java IRC chat I have been able to pull in the username using id="user" value="<?=$_SESSION['uname']?>" />
and <param name="nick" value="<?=$_SESSION['uname']?>">

So I try and mange and work with $params["nick"] = "uname"; and several other different ways and just cant seem to pull it in.

Ive also added and tried to work with adding my session value and nothing still


Any suggestions?

Hi,

You are in php, so you need to use it as this

Code: Select all

$params['nick'] = $_SESSION['uname'];

setting this other way you are effectibly passing a string to the nick :

Code: Select all

$params['nick'] = "uname";

regards.

Thanks, I got it working - great script - one last question though - used one of the demo examples and I can seem to find where to change or get rid at the top where it says A chat with a ISO-8859-1 encoded page
