elflacodepr Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hello all, I need help with this login system, the problem is I don't know how to retrieve data correctly from DB I have an idea but still not working. Also I'm not sure if arrays in login systems work same way I did....till blows my head everytime I work with them...any help is appreciated. Here is the script: <?php if(isset($_POST['Login'])){ $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $userpass = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); include 'library/config.php'; include 'library/open.php'; // Query $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password'") or die ('Error, cannot continue'); $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); if(mysql_num_rows($sql) == 0) die("<br />Invalid user or password!<br />"); else session_start(); $_SESSION["username"]=$row["username"]; $_SESSION["username"]=$row["password"]; header("LOCATION: admin/admin.php"); include 'library/closedb.php'; } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/115463-login-system-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanWhitehouse Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 change $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); to $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/115463-login-system-help/#findComment-593554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonLewis Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Try it like this, you've got some of the orders mixed around. And session_start() should ALWAYS be at the top. Oh and you were using $password not $userpass. <?php session_start(); //ALWAYS!!! if(isset($_POST['Login'])){ $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $userpass = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); include 'library/config.php'; include 'library/open.php'; // Query $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `username`='{$username}' AND `password`='{$userpass}'") or die ('Error, cannot continue'); if(mysql_num_rows($sql) == 0){ die("<br />Invalid user or password!<br />"); }else{ $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); //you can use array $_SESSION['username'] = $row['username']; $_SESSION['username'] = $row['password']; header("LOCATION: admin/admin.php"); include 'library/closedb.php'; } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/115463-login-system-help/#findComment-593564 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanWhitehouse Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 so u want it to show an error if the password is wrong? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/115463-login-system-help/#findComment-593582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elflacodepr Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 ok, I have 2 files, the Login and Validate: Login.php <html> <head>Login</head> <body> <table> <tr> <td> <form action="validate.php" method="POST"> User: <input type="text" name="username"><br /> Password: <input type="password" name="password"> <input type="submit" value="Login"> </form> </td> </tr> </body> </html> Validate.php <?php session_start(); //ALWAYS!!! if(isset($_POST['Login'])){ $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $userpass = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); include 'library/config.php'; include 'library/open.php'; // Query $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `username`='{$username}' AND `password`='{$userpass}'") or die ('Error, cannot continue'); if(mysql_num_rows($sql) == 0){ die("<br />Invalid user or password!<br />"); }else{ $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); //you can use array $_SESSION['username'] = $row['username']; $_SESSION['username'] = $row['password']; header("LOCATION: admin/admin.php"); include 'library/closedb.php'; } } ?> What I mean is, after I fill the login info(username and password) it is supposed to check all info using Validate.php script, once is checked and everything is correct it must redirect me to "admin/admin.php". but it doesn't, it simply shows a blank page after I click the Login button(inlogin.php) I hope I could make ya the map so u want it to show an error if the password is wrong? Yes thats what I want, but it doesn't work at all, as I can type anything and it redirects me ???

paulman888888 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Could you use AJAX? I think that would be very good. Target _hidenframe in your form. And if the password and username is correct, use javascript redirect. Its an idea. If it helps or not is a different thing.
