CodeIngiter model doesn't save in the session

I need to add in a sessione some variables that I obtain after I do login. This is my code in my model.php:

function login($username,$password)
    {

        $query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM user WHERE username='".$username."'");
        $row = $query->row();

        if (isset($row))
        {
            $this->session->set_userdata('logged','isLogged');
            return 1;
        }else{
            return 0;
        }

    }

The proble is that when I check the value in the session (google chrome) I doesn't read the "logged" parameter. Anyone can help me?

What you are looking at is the browser session storage. PHP/CodeIgniter lives on the server and therefore will not use this storage.

You will find your variable set in the PHP $_SESSION superglobal. You can access it like so:

$_SESSION['logged'];

Alternatively, you can use the CodeIgniter magic getter method:

$this->session->logged;

You can find more info on CodeIgniter sessions here.

Hope this helps.
