[FX.php List] Cannot get redirects to work

[Jon Montgomery]

I have a site in which members login with ID and Password.  Then session
variables are set to include if they have paid their membership dues. The
FMP DB contains this membership status.

Here is what I need:

If membership is marked "PAID", then I need it to continue to the first step
page first.php.

If the membership is marked "NOT PAID", then I need it to go to a pay your
dues page.

I have tried the following:

The Session variable being $_SESSION['Paid_Membership']

<?php if(!session_id()) session_start();?>

<?php

$_SESSION['School_ID'];

$_SESSION['password'];

$_SESSION['Paid_Membership'];

if($_SESSION['Paid_Membership'] == 'NOT PAID')


include_once('igsma_dues.php');

else



include_once('igsma_first.php');



Now in my mind, this code tells me if the user has NOT paid their
membership, it should go to the igsma_due.php page.  If the user has PAID
their membership, then it would load the current page.

However, this does not work.  I have even tried reversing the order of the
pages and changing the if criteria.  This seems so simple and yet I am not
able to get the results I expect.

Any light you could shed would be helpful.
