Hi guys,

my remember me function does not work. It would be great if anyone could tell me whats wrong or missing in the code. Thanks so much in advance....

<?php require_once('Connections/Login.php'); ?>
<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
}

$loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_GET['accesscheck'])) {
$_SESSION['PrevUrl'] = $_GET['accesscheck'];
}

if (isset($_POST['username'])) {
$loginUsername=$_POST['username'];
$password=$_POST['password'];
$MM_fldUserAuthorization = "";
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "intro.php";
$MM_redirectLoginFailed = "login.php";
$MM_redirecttoReferrer = false;
mysql_select_db($database_Login, $Login);

$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT id, resultspo, resultsmo, resultspassion, firstname, name, results, username, password FROM users WHERE username='%s' AND password='%s'",
get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? $loginUsername : addslashes($loginUsername), get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? $password : addslashes($password)); 



$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $Login) or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array($LoginRS);          // ADDED
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
if ($loginFoundUser) {
   $loginStrGroup = "";
   //declare two session variables and assign them
   $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
   $_SESSION['MM_password'] = $row['password'];
   $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;   
   $_SESSION['MM_name'] = $row['name'];   // CHANGED 
   $_SESSION['MM_resultspo'] = $row['resultspo'];
   $_SESSION['MM_resultsmo'] = $row['resultsmo'];
   $_SESSION['MM_resultspassion'] = $row['resultspassion'];
   $_SESSION['id'] = $row['id'];
   $_SESSION['newpo'] = $row['resultspo'];
   $_SESSION['newmo'] = $row['resultsmo'];
   $_SESSION['MM_firstname'] = $row['firstname'];


if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) {
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];	
}
header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess );
}
else {
header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed );
}
}
if(isset($_POST['remember'])){
      setcookie("cookname", $_SESSION['MM_username'], time()+60*60*24*100, "/");
      setcookie("cookpass", $_SESSION['MM_password'], time()+60*60*24*100, "/");

that's because PHP is case sensitive when it comes to variable names .. spot the difference?

$_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;

versus

setcookie("cookname", $_SESSION['MM_username'], time()+60*60*24*100, "/");

*HINT: the 'u' in username is uppercase when you declare the session var, but lowercase when you try and use it in a cookie.

could be why your not being remembered since the username you're expecting isn't being stored in the cookie.

did you read the cookie when troubleshooting? you would've seen that right off the bat.

@MrMarcus.

thanks I di dnot see that I chnaged it: However it still does not work....

Turn on error reporting and display, you may be getting a header error.

mrMarcus · April 29, 2009

how - or where - are you checking the stored cookie information against the database / user?

i mean, you can set cookies all you want, but if that's all you do, you can't expect much to happen thereafter.

are your passwords encrypted in the database? make sure the login credential's are correct.
