Users being logged as different users

Hey,

Many of my users reported that after they login, as they are surffing the website, in the login block the user name is changing to some other user...

after surfing to other pages this error is gone and they see thier user again..

what could case this? how to I fix this?

I Thought maybe caching but I am using no caching program/script.

maybe a cookie error? or bad your_account module? Rolling Eyes

Is this the default user info block that ships with nuke or a third party block you have added?

Are these users from the same work place, school, or something similar? If they are it might be that they are being cached by the organisations server. I have seen this happen at my work place.

jakec I think not, there are all kind of users reporting this.

Guardian2003 its a login block I have created (or copied I cant recall exactly) which apears in the theme.php file:

Code:

/* Start Log-in block top left */    


    $uresult = $db->sql_query("select user_id from ".$user_prefix."_users where username='$username'");


    list($uid) = $db->sql_fetchrow($uresult);


    $presult = $db->sql_query("SELECT privmsgs_to_userid FROM ".$prefix."_bbprivmsgs WHERE privmsgs_to_userid='$uid' AND (privmsgs_type='5' OR privmsgs_type='1')");


    $pnumrow = $db->sql_numrows($presult);


    


        $priv_msgs = "<a href=\"messages.html\"><font color=\"red\"><b>$pnumrow</b></font> äåãòåú çãùåú</a>";





        if ($username == "Anonymous") {


   $theuser = "<form action=\"account.html\" method=\"post\"><b>ùí îùúîù:</b><br><input class=\"headerinputtext\" type=\"text\" name=\"username\" value=\"ùí îùúîù\" onFocus=\"if(this.value=='ùí îùúîù')this.value='';\" style=\"width:100;height:16;border:1px solid blue;\"><br><b>ñéñîà:</b><br><input class=\"headerinputtext\" type=\"password\" name=\"user_password\" value=\"password\" onFocus=\"if(this.value=='password')this.value='';\" value style=\"width:100;height:16;border:1px solid blue;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"random_num\" value=\"$random_num\"><input type=\"hidden\" class=headertextinput name=\"gfx_check\" value=\"$code\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"op\" value=\"login\"><br><input type=\"image\" value=\"login\" src=\"themes/Preflight/images/login.gif\" class=\"inputimage\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"account-new_user.html\"><img src=\"themes/Preflight/images/register.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"äéøùí\"></a></form>";


    } else {


        $theuser = "<center><font color=\"blue\"><b>áøåê äáà!</b></font><br><b>$username</b></center><hr>$priv_msgs<br><a href=\"forum-editprofile.html\">ùéðåé äâãøåú ôøåôéì</a><br><a href=\"account-logout.html\">äúðú÷</a>\n";


    }


/* End Log-in block top left */

I use $theuser in header.html file.

This code might be wrong?
