Error on exit()

boblan66 · December 5, 2010

The code seems to cear debug until I attempt to exit after doing a while loop.

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in C:\Users\Bob\Desktop\TAFT WEB\test\login.php on line 46

Here's the code:

<?php
/*
-----------------------NOVEMBER 2010--------------------
*/

// User has 3 trys to enter correct username and password
// increment by one
$num_log = ($num_logs + 1);

if ($_POST['username'])
{

//Connect to the database through our include
include_once "connect_to_mysql.php";
$username = stripslashes($_POST['username']);
$username = strip_tags($username);
$username = mysql_real_escape_string($username);

$password = ereg_replace("[^A-Za-z0-9]", "", $_POST['password']); // filter everything but numbers and letters
$password = md5($password);
}

// Make query and then register all database data that -
// cannot be changed by member into SESSION variables.
// Data that you want member to be able to change -
// should never be set into a SESSION variable.
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM register WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'");
$login_check = mysql_num_rows($sql);
if($login_check > 0); {
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
        // Get member ID into a session variable
        $id = $row["id"];
        session_register('id');
        $_SESSION['id'] = $id;
        // Get member username into a session variable
    $username = $row["username"];
        session_register('username');
        $_SESSION['username'] = $username;
        // Update last_log_date field for this member now
        mysql_query("UPDATE user_log SET log_on=now() WHERE id='$id'");
        // Print success message here if all went well then exit the script
	header("location: memPage.shtml php?id=$id");
	exit();
    }
    // close while
ERROR --->    else {
             exit()
    }

    // Print login failure message to the user and link them back to your login page
       print '<br><br>
       <font color="#FF0000">
       No match was found in our member records, try again.
       </font>
       <br><br>
       <a href="login.php">Click here</a> to go back to the login page.';
       exit();
// close if post
?>

Spent the 10 seconds it takes to look at the structure of your code. Look where the {s and }s are.

if;
{
    while {
    } else {
}

There are three problems:

1. You end your if block. That's what a semicolon will do if you put it there.

2. You put the else onto the while.

3. You're missing a closing }.
