Retweet this button on every post blogger
Login-Logout is a very basic mechanism for authenticate a user   User of your website or application. this mechanism always implemented using PHP session  variable.

$_SESSION is an associative array containing session variables available to the current script.
for registering a session variable we must have to start_session.
About session_start():-

Syntax : -

bool session_start ( void )

Returns TRUE if a session successfully started otherwise FALSE.
1. session_start — Initialize session data.
2. session_start() creates a session or resumes the current one based on a session identifier passed via a GET or POST request, or passed via a cookie.
3When session.use_trans_sid is enabled, the session_start() function will register an internal output handler for URL rewriting.

PHP script for login logout :-

Example page index.php 

<?php
session_start();
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$_SESSION['user'] = "user";
}
?>
