Protecting Pages Code? What am I doing wrong. Please help

Hi there,

I am having an issue protecting sub-folders within sub-folders with PHP.

I have been protecting pages with only short directories (doing fine), but now I am wanting to protect new directories with a number of sub-directories and that is where I am having troubles.

Example:
PHP Login Script Location: http://www.mydomain.com/login/free/main.php

Works Fine -
Pages Protected: http://www.mydomain.com/login/free/members/free.php

Does not work -
Wanting Pages Protected: http://www.mydomain.com/login/free/members/free/archive/directory/2008.php
(and branched out from there)

This is the code I use on tops of all my pages, but the long one's do not work...

PHP Code:

  <?php
include("..../include/session.php");
if(!$session->logged_in){ header("Location: ..../main.php"); } else { 
?>
<!-- -->

Only "../" works, not "..../" or "....../".

Can anyone tell me why this is the case and what I am doing wrong.

Thanks

..../ can not work...

In the linux world, when you want to go e.g. 2 subfolders down, you must use:

../../subfolder-name

or for 3 folders:

../../../subfolder-name

Your code would look like this:
Code:

<?php include("../../include/session.php"); if(!){ header("Location: ../../main.php"); } else { ?>

  Thanks a lot really appreciate your time. It worked perfect. I almost got that, I tried ./../ and didn't work. But thank for your time and knowledge. Now I will remember that for next time.

One other thing, I see your sending headers to redirect the user:
however your not exiting the script, so the redirect wont actually happen the page will just continue to load.

in your if do:
{
header('location: mylocation');
exit();
}
