How do I detect if user is logged in?

[kwame]

Hi, I have changed the header & navbar altogether and I wanted to display Login/Logout based on the current status of the user. Can someone please tell me how I can do this? I just can't figure out how to test for current status. Thanks.

<if condition="$show['guest']">

Login

</if>

<if condition="$show['member']">

Logout

</if>

Replace "Login" and "Logout" with their respective code of course

Thanks for the help but I guess I should have been more specific. The code is going to be placed in the header template and once I put the code
<if condition="$show['guest']">Login</if> into the template, I immediately get errors. Any thoughts?

The error that I get is "Parse error: parse error in E:\jamproinvest\caribbeanbusinessclub\forums\globa l.php(512) : eval()'d code on line 368" and line 368 is the line that says "<if condition="$show['guest']">"

No, I'm not sure...that should work just fine....post the block of code around this code you're working on.

Here is my code which is taken from the header template:
