My If/Else statement runs is connected to a variable that is created when you log-in. It is supposed to show a form to log-in when you're not logged in, or when 'Session.MM_Username' EQ "guest" . When you login, Session.MM_Username is what you enter in to the form (which is checked by the database of course) and this provides the key to unlock the menu, which replaces the form. Problem is, it keeps thinking "guest" is the name of the user and never shows the form.
is there a better way to go about this??
-- ignore the "check_name" query. it's from a previous attempt at getting this to work properly.
if i can get this working, i should be fine,
I've got cfparam name="Session.guest" default="guest"
and when you log out,
