My Login Screen is not working, blank screen

Question

I am having an issue with my login screen for my website I am making. When I go to my login screen it is blank and says that there was an internal server error. Can anyone help?

here is my script:

<?php
  session_start();
  $user="customer";
  $pass="customer";
  if (isset($_SESSSION["logged_in"] && $_SESSION["logged_in"] == true)){
    header("Locataion: form.php");
  }
  if (isset($_POST["username"]) && isset($_POST["password"])){
    if ($_POST["username"] == $user && $_POST["password"] == $pass){
      $_SESSION["logged_in"] = true;
      header("Locataion: form.php");
    }
  }
 ?>
<html lang="en">
<body>
  <form class="login" method="post" action="login.php">
    Username:<br>
    <input type="text" id="username" name="username" required><br>
    Password:<br>
    <input type="password" id="password" name="password" required><br>
    <input type="submit" label="Login">
</form>
</body>
</html>

A 500/Internal Server error is a generic error message and covers pretty much every single thing that can go wrong with a script. Check your server error logs to find out the exact error message. — aynber, Feb 19 '19 at 19:39
Change your first `if` to `if (isset($_SESSION["logged_in"]) && $_SESSION["logged_in"] == true){` — Nick, Mar 06 '19 at 05:24

Information about the problem:

In IF(), you check if the variable is set with isset(), however, isset() must encompass your variable. the problem is that closing isset() is not correct it should end just after your first variable $_SESSSION["logged_in"]

Solution:

Replace:

if (isset($_SESSION["logged_in"] && $_SESSION["logged_in"] == true)){
  header("Location: form.php");
}

By :

if (isset($_SESSION["logged_in"]) && $_SESSION["logged_in"] == true){
  header("Location: form.php");
}

Good luck !

When you write an answer at least read it carefully before publish it because it contains more errors of the question :)) – gp_sflover Feb 20 '19 at 11:38

Thank you Jeremy! my parentheses were in the wrong place....I also misspelled location. It works now. – Kipycoo Feb 20 '19 at 20:23
