After logging in, i end up in a continual loop between index.php and 
checklogin.php.  Can someone give me a clue as to what is up and how to fix 
it?  If i set the checklogin to go to a page that does not check 
authentication if the user/pass combo passed, it works fine, but whe i send 
it to a page that checks to see if $PHP_AUTH_USER is set, i get the infinite 
loop, which is funny the first time, but really.... Thanks in advance.

*no, the comments aren't really there in the code (at least 99% of them ;) )
//index.php
//<?
// index.php - secure page
//   session_start();
//   if (!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER))
//      {
//           // If empty, send header causing dialog box to appear
//	   header("Location: 
http://dev.e-//dbapps.com/customscripts/checklogin.php");
//         exit;
//      }
//?> 

//<?php
//	session_start();
//	// File Name: checklogin.php
//	// Check to see if $PHP_AUTH_USER already contains info
////	if (!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER))
//	   {
//		// If empty, send header causing dialog box to appear
//		header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Webmail Testing Area"');
//		header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
//		exit;
//	   }
//	else if (isset($PHP_AUTH_USER))
//	   {
//		mysql_connect("***", "***", "***") or die ("Unable to connect to 
database.");
//		// select database on MySQL server
//		mysql_select_db("***") or die ("Unable to select database.");
//		$sql = "SELECT id FROM users WHERE username='$PHP_AUTH_USER' and 
password= PASSWORD('$PHP_AUTH_PW')";
//		$result = mysql_query($sql);
//		// Get number of rows in $result. 0 if invalid, 1 if valid.
//		$num = mysql_numrows($result);
//		if ($num != "0")
//		   {
//			// redirect to protected page
//			session_register($PHP_AUTH_USER);
//			session_register($PHP_AUTH_PW);
//			header("Location: http://dev.e-dbapps.com/index2.php");
//			exit();
//		   }
//		else
//		   {
//			$status = 0;
//			header("Location: 
http://dev.e-dbapps.com/customscripts/error.php?e=$status");
//			exit();
//   		   }
//	   }
//?>
