<?php

$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = '';
$dbname = 'mygame';
$link = mysql_pconnect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) 
or die("Could not connect to server.");
$selectdb = mysql_select_db($dbname, $link) 
or die("Could not connect to database.");
// Check to see if user is logged in
session_start();
if((!isset($_SESSION['id'])) || (!isset($_SESSION['username'])) || 
(!isset($_SESSION['password'])))

unset($_SESSION['username']);
