Hello vineeth,

I recommend you have a column in your table of users that says "Admin" make it an INT and make it DEFAULT of 0.

Then make a function with a query inside of it that checks to see if the column of Admin is 1 or not, if it is, then return true...

Something like this.

Code: Select all

function userisadmin() {
      $idname = $_SESSION['user_id'];  // your session name to determain the id of the user that is logged in
      $query = "SELECT Admin FROM users WHERE id ='$idname'";
      if ($query_run = mysql_query($query)) {
         if($query_result = mysql_result($query_run, 0, $field)) {
            if ($query_result == '1') {
               return true;
               }else{
               return false;
            }
      }
   }
}

// then on any page you could put
if (userisadmin()) {
//if they're an admin...
}else{
if they are not.
}


Hope this helped ;)
