4daysilnevergetback Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Okay I am trying to figure this out... and I get most of it... just havin issues with one little thing.. In the register.php example on http://www.free2code.net/tutorials/view/creating_a_php_login_script-5/page4.html I am trying to figure out how to make it register the password using the OLD_PASSWORD method Starting on line 74 } // now we can add them to the database. // encrypt password $_POST['passwd'] = md5($_POST['passwd']); if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['passwd'] = addslashes($_POST['passwd']); $_POST['email'] = addslashes($_POST['email']); $_POST['website'] = addslashes($_POST['website']); $_POST['location'] = addslashes($_POST['location']); } $regdate = date('m d, Y'); $insert = "INSERT INTO users ( username, password, regdate, email, website, location, show_email, last_login) VALUES ( '".$_POST['uname']."', 'OLD_PASSWORD('.$_POST['passwd'].'), '$regdate', '".$_POST['email']."', '".$_POST['website']."', '".$_POST['location']."', '".$_POST['show_email']."', 'Never')"; I know it's these two lines and I am missing something $_POST['passwd'] = md5($_POST['passwd']); 'OLD_PASSWORD('.$_POST['passwd'].'), What am I doing wrong? I try to never ask questions but this is driving me bonkers.. and 4 days... lost of reading trying differant stuff. If I did not need the old password method I would not have asked. Thanks in advance...

4daysilnevergetback Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 I am so confused... Yeah I tried that to at first that and got an error on line 73 : Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier '/' in reg.php on line 73 DB Error: syntax error It works as long as I am not trying to use the OLD_PASSWORD function So that error makes no sense... I even left the website field blank. I am using php 5 and Mysql 5.1 but running the database password in 4.0 compatibility Here is the whole script... thank you for the suggestion... you could see how a newbie like myself would be puzzled.... <?php require('db_connect.php'); // database connect script. ?> <html> <head> <title>Register an Account</title> </head> <body> <?php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { // if form has been submitted /* check they filled in what they supposed to, passwords matched, username isn't already taken, etc. */ if (!$_POST['uname'] || !$_POST['passwd'] || !$_POST['passwd_again'] || !$_POST['email']) { die('You did not fill in a required field.'); } // check if username exists in database. if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['uname'] = addslashes($_POST['uname']); } $qry = "SELECT username FROM users WHERE username = '".$_POST['uname']."'"; $name_check = $db_object->query($qry); if (DB::isError($name_check)) { die($name_check->getMessage()); } $name_checkk = $name_check->numRows(); if ($name_checkk != 0) { die('Sorry, the username: <strong>'.$_POST['uname'].'</strong>' . ' is already taken, please pick another one.'); } // check passwords match if ($_POST['passwd'] != $_POST['passwd_again']) { die('Passwords did not match.'); } // check e-mail format if (!preg_match("/.*@.*..*/", $_POST['email']) || preg_match("/(<|>)/", $_POST['email'])) { die('Invalid e-mail address.'); } // no HTML tags in username, website, location, password $_POST['uname'] = strip_tags($_POST['uname']); $_POST['passwd'] = strip_tags($_POST['passwd']); $_POST['website'] = strip_tags($_POST['website']); $_POST['location'] = strip_tags($_POST['location']); // check show_email data if ($_POST['show_email'] != 0 & $_POST['show_email'] != 1) { die('Nope'); } /* the rest of the information is optional, the only thing we need to check is if they submitted a website, and if so, check the format is ok. */ if ($_POST['website'] != '' & !preg_match("/^(http|ftp):///", $_POST['website'])) { $_POST['website'] = 'http://'.$_POST['website']; } // now we can add them to the database. // encrypt password $_POST['passwd'] = md5($_POST['passwd']); if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['passwd'] = addslashes($_POST['passwd']); $_POST['email'] = addslashes($_POST['email']); $_POST['website'] = addslashes($_POST['website']); $_POST['location'] = addslashes($_POST['location']); } $regdate = date('m d, Y'); $insert = "INSERT INTO users ( username, password, regdate, email, website, location, show_email, last_login) VALUES ( '".$_POST['uname']."', 'OLD_PASSWORD('".$_POST['passwd']."'), '$regdate', '".$_POST['email']."', '".$_POST['website']."', '".$_POST['location']."', '".$_POST['show_email']."', 'Never')"; $add_member = $db_object->query($insert); if (DB::isError($add_member)) { die($add_member->getMessage()); } $db_object->disconnect(); ?> <h1>Registered</h1> <p>Thank you, your information has been added to the database, you may now <a href="login.php" title="Login">log in</a>.</p> <?php } else { // if form hasn't been submitted ?> <h1>Register</h1> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"> <table align="center" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3"> <tr><td>Username*:</td><td> <input type="text" name="uname" maxlength="40"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Password*:</td><td> <input type="password" name="passwd" maxlength="50"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Confirm Password*:</td><td> <input type="password" name="passwd_again" maxlength="50"> </td></tr> <tr><td>E-Mail*:</td><td> <input type="text" name="email" maxlength="100"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Website:</td><td> <input type="text" name="website" maxlength="150"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Location</td><td> <input type="text" name="location" maxlength="150"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Show E-Mail?</td><td> <select name="show_email"> <option value="1" selected="selected">Yes</option> <option value="0">No</option></select> </td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" align="right"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Sign Up"> </td></tr> </table> </form> <?php } ?> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/104471-solved-lost-and-loster-please-help/#findComment-534847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimpage Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hi, From what I have quickly read about the OLD_PASSWORD() function, that is for the actual MySQL User database, not your own databases. Are you creating MySQL users, or is this a user table you are creating for your own application. David.

4daysilnevergetback Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 It's a user table for a mmo game being designed with an engine that only is able to access U/P's using the OLD_PASSWORD. And the boys at quest3d just put out a new version but never bothered to update their SQL version. I have a database already that it can access but not register... so I am making a php page users can register threw.

4daysilnevergetback Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 As well the DB user's password has to be in 4.0 compatibility for the engine to access the table.

4daysilnevergetback Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Lol... I think not.... Everything is already built around it. 2 years worth of stuff. Besides I got it Just had to do something alittle backwards, but then just decided to make my own C pack for it instead so people could check their offline messages threw a Ajax IM. Long way around but... Learned some neat stuff in the process and now I have no more questions. C++, Pascal, Cobalt, PHP, Perl, Ajax, sql, MSDB, Flash, Shockwave, html,shtml,etc etc.. Now I can add SQL to the list. 7 days later lol.. Peace.
