How can I filter which records are displayed in my dynamic table?

Question

I have what I think is probably an easy question for anyone
who is experienced with PHP/MySQL and Dreamweaver (which I am not).
I have a website where users login, and then have access to
their homepage which displays a dynamic table of all of the records
that they have inserted into a database (this page also has a link
to the form where they submit a record). However, right now I can
only get to display all records that have been inserted instead of
only the ones that they have inserted (which is what I want). How
can I accomplish this?
I already have a session variable, 'MM_username', which
allows me to bind the user_ID to anything I need to, and when a
user inserts a record, their 'user_ID' is already inserted into a
column in that record for that table, so I'd like to display the
dynamic table in a way that filters it out so it only shows the
records that match the logged-in user's 'user_ID'.
I've tried to use the filter function in the recordset dialog
box, nut I just can't get it to work correctly. Any help on this
would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

I already tried that. I set the table to filter out and
display only the records that match the landlord ID to the session
variable(which I named 'Landlord_ID' not 'MM_username ' like I said
earlier). When I tried to simply insert the session variable into
the page just to see what data would show up, the result is just a
blank space, so the session variable itself apparently has no data
value to echo in the PHP form.
Because of that, I have no idea how to tell dreamweaver to
filter based on the Landlord_ID, even though I CAN echo the
landlord ID variable in the recordset, I can't figure out how to
put that runtime value in the filter.
