Email Verification

[Drezard]

Hello, I was wondering. In average size sites (like this one) when you sign up they send you an email with a URL to goto. Itll be something like www.something.com/mail.php?var=12222user=Daniel. And var is your activation number and user is your username. I was wondering whats the actual URL and actual code to pass 1222 and Daniel to a php script.

Thanks, Daniel

activate.php?code=1222%user=daniel

<?php
$code=$_GET['code'];
$user=$_GET['user'];
echo "$code has been entered for user $user";
?>


This could definatly do with securing down tho especialy if used with a database so might be worth using

<?php
$code=mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['code']);
$user=mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['user']);
echo "$code has been entered for user $user";
?>
