Any suggestions - I attched the complete file if your feeling adventurace. function confirmPass($email, $pass){ if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){ $email = addslashes($email); } $query = "SELECT password FROM "Accounts" WHERE email = '$email'"; $result = mysql_query($query); if(!$result || (mysql_num_rows($result) < 1)){ return 1; } $dbarray = mysql_fetch_array($result); $dbarray['password'] = stripslashes($dbarray['password']); $password = stripslashes($pass); if($password == $dbarray['password']){ return 0; } else{ return 2; } } [attachment deleted by admin]

Hi, I've been using php for about a year and a half now but I'm having a lot of trouble designing a good solid login system. My current system runs the profile, account settings, register and login system all from 4 files. I fell it’s to centralised. I want to have a file for each single system, e.g. the login page is just one page with all the functions and database connection and error handling all in one. Could someone please give some suggestions on how I could achieve this or show some example?

Hi, I have created a account update form but my error checking is a little off. When I try to change the password it says I havent entered a new password when I have and when I try to change the email address it asks me for my current and new password.

The error handling file isn;t the problem becuase it works fine on other forms. Thanks in advance for nay help. All suggestions welcome. The editAccount functions is at bottom of the core file.

Cheers that works a treat.
