Function - Replacing session registerquotmyusernamequot in PHP V5.3.6

Questions

I have the following in my code

session_register("myusername");
session_register("mypassword"); 

within

    <?php

ob_start();
$host="ClubEvents.db.9606426.hostedresource.com"; // Host name 
$username="ClubEventsRead"; // Mysql username 
$password="Pa55word!"; // Mysql password 
    $db_name="ClubEvents"; // Database name 
$tbl_name="members"; // Table name 

// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); 
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");

// Define $myusername and $mypassword 
$myusername=$_POST[ myusername ]; 
$mypassword=$_POST[ mypassword ]; 

// To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection)
$myusername = stripslashes($myusername);
$mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword);
    $myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername);
$mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string($mypassword);
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username= $myusername  and password= $mypassword ";
$result=mysql_query($sql);

// Mysql_num_row is counting table row
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);

// If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row
if($count==1){

// Register $myusername, $mypassword and redirect to file "login_success.php"
session_register("myusername");
session_register("mypassword"); 
header("location:login_success.php");
}
else {
echo "Wrong Username or Password";
}
ob_end_flush();
?>

What is it to be replace by, now that the php function has been deprecated?

Answers

Just place the values you want in the $_SESSION array, like:

$_SESSION[ myusername ] = "xxx";

I m not seeing you session_start on your code. Don t forget it.
