Auto filling form fields based on session login
I am trying to auto fill certain fields on a page based on the user that is logged in. I have the SESSION set but have a couple places that look at the SESSION in the page to display a form and welcome message. I want to have the $name and $lname that is in the database display in the form labeled Reviews. I cut some of the insignificant code to make it fit in this post. I have tried multiple things to make this work. If someone could look it over I would greatly appreciate it. I am very new to PHP so please explain in detail.PHP Code:<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['name'] = "$name";
?>
