What everyone else brought up is correct...

I just wanted to add -- are you sure that you're not running into a  
scoping issue, and reusing a login variable on the server side ?  a  
little mistake like that can be fixed by moving a 'my' from a package  
into a sub.

thats a common mistake that could result in that effect.  the other  
answers are much more specific to your problem.
