Hi kb90 to stop people from accessing the admincp if they are not the admin or not logged in you'll want to read page 701 in the book for the answer.

Basically all you have to do is add the following to the very top of admin.php page:

Code:

<?php
session_start();

include "http.php";

if($_SESSION['access_lvl'] < 3)
{
    redirect('index.php');
}

?>

I have just added that code to my admin page but now when I log in and go to the admin page I get this

'Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in my directory'

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: A link to the server could not be established in my directory on line 21
Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

Had no problems when the new code wasn't there?

Need to download code?
