User Authentication Problem

[Eric8000]

I've created a login page which checks the user's access level against an
Access database. Works fine for level members 2 and 3. - 1 and 4 get denied.
Please see the code below. Thanks in advance! ' redirect user based on
Access level If Session('MM_UserAuthorization') = '1' Then
MM_redirectLoginSuccess = 'WelcomeEric.asp' ElseIf
Session('MM_UserAuthorization') = '2' Then MM_redirectLoginSuccess =
'WelcomeTrish.asp' ElseIf Session('MM_UserAuthorization') = '3' Then
MM_redirectLoginSuccess = 'WelcomeMyles.asp' ElseIf
Session('MM_UserAuthorization') = '4' Then MM_redirectLoginSuccess =
'WelcomeZvi.asp' Else MM_redirectLoginSuccess = '?Action=Failed' End If

Are you sure the values 1 and 4 are getting passed to the code? Try adding
the Session('MM_UserAuthorization') to the end of the Action failed to see
what value is passed. Something along the lines of:

Else
MM_redirectLoginSuccess = '?Action=Failed&UserLevel=' &
Session('MM_UserAuthorization')
End If

A common problem is stray spaces in the database where you've stored the
access level. '1 ' is not the same as '1'.

Thank you. Forgive me for not being an avid programer. So, I tried your
suggestion. When I go to the login page now, I get this... Microsoft VBScript
compilation error '800a0409' Unterminated string constant /peer/login.asp,
line 40 MM_redirectLoginSuccess = '?Action=Failed&amp;UserLevel='&amp;
------------------------------------------------------^ What do you think?

Make sure there's no line breaks. The whole command must be on one line
(the forum put a line break into the sample code which wasn't there).
