variable cannot be passed to multiple pages.

i have designed a login page like this:

[HTML]<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Electrical Engineering Dept IITK</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<style type="text/css">

-->
</style>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#99CCFF">
<form name="form1" method="post" action="../myphp/validate1.php">

<p><span class="style1"> </span> </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<table width="38%" border="0">
<tr>
<th scope="row"><div align="left">
<label>User Name</label>
&nbsp;</div></th>
<td><input name="username" type="text" size="35" maxlength="35"></td>

</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<label><u><strong></strong></u></label>
</p>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>[/HTML]

this page is calling validate.php which is :

[PHP]<?php
session_start();
$passwords = array("ajohari" =>"anurag",
"knaveen" =>"naveen",
"pkk" =>"kalra",
"anu" =>"anu");
if ($password == $passwords[$username]){
$_SESSION['user']=$username?>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<frameset rows="144,*" cols="*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">

</frameset>
</html>
<?
exit();
}else{
echo "<H2>Invalid user name or password: access denied.</H2>";
include("../myphp/eeiitk.php");
}
?>[/PHP]

after validating frame3.php page is called which is:

[PHP] <?php
session_start();
$connection = pg_connect("host=localhost dbname=personal user=postgres");
if (!$connection) {
print("Connection Failed.");
exit;
}
$username1=$_SESSION['user'];

$myresult = pg_exec($connection, "SELECT * FROM personal where username='username1'");

for ($lt = 0; $lt < pg_numrows($myresult); $lt++) {
$name = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 0);
$designation = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 1);
$department = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 2);
$telephonework = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 3);
$telephoneres = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 4);
$fax = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 5);
$email = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 6);
$address = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 7);
$areaofinterest = pg_result($myresult, $lt, 8);
$username= pg_result($myresult, $lt, 9);
$image= pg_result($myresult, $lt, 10);
}
?>

Oh yes, these variables can, and indeed are, passed to the script. But you have not assigned the passed POSTed values for username and password the the appropriate variables.

Script validate.php must begin as follows:

[php]<?php
session_start();
$username = trim(strip_tags($_POST['username']));
$password = trim(strip_tags($_POST['password']));
// ... etc ...[/php]

I am sure it works but somehow you don't handle the POSTed values not correctly. Show the code.
