First, thank you for the great tutorial. I'm beginning with PHP and it was very easy to run through and understand.

I'm currently trying to customize the member area of the tutorial and I wanted to have a section where it says "Welcome '$username'", where $username is replaced with the username of whoever is logged in. I've been trying a few options but can't seem to find the right approach.

Do I call a mysql_query and get the username from the database? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
