Hash Password Checker - (Unexpected T_ELSEIF Error)!

[Codarz360]

Alright, I have created a hash password checker and here is my code:

include("include.php"); // include the mySQL info!

$users = mysql_query(" SELECT * FROM User "); // Select all from the users table in the database!
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($users)) // While it fetches the users do the following...
{
if (hash("sha256", $password) == $row["Password"])
echo "Congratulations! The Hash matches the password entered into the database!";
} 
elseif (hash("sha256", $password) != $row["Password"])
{
echo "Your Hash failed to match the password entered!";
} 

 

Now for some reason this displays a totally blank page. When I turn error display on I get the error "Unexpected T_ELSEIF" on this line

elseif (hash("sha256", $password) != $row["Password"])

 

Any help is appreciated...

what if you dont use the elseif and just use

 

else{

    //do stuff

}

Then I get the error "Unexpected T_ELSE" or if I turned the display errors off I would still be presented with a blank page.

You are missing a { after IF

You're missing a { after this line:

if (hash("sha256", $password) == $row["Password"])

 

And you're missing the } to close your while loop.

Alright so your saying it should look like this now:

include("include.php"); // include the mySQL info!

$users = mysql_query(" SELECT * FROM User "); // Select all from the users table in the database!
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($users)) // While it fetches the users do the following...
      {
if (hash("sha256", $password) == $row["Password"]) // If the hash matches the password echo the following...
      {
      echo "Hash correct!";
      }
elseif (hash("sha256", $password) != $row["Password"])
      {
      echo "Your Hash failed to match the password entered!";
      }
else
      die("Nothing");
      }

 

If so then all this is doing is displaying "Your Hash failed to match the password entered!" when I know for a fact it's the correct hash for the password.

in your database is password column named Password or password? try changing

$row["Password"]

to

$row["password"]

[Codarz360]

My database column is named "Password" so it should match up but for some reason it doesn't.

[Codarz360]

I think I have fixed the original error by putting the code I had in my checkpass.php into my adduser.php script.

 

The only problem I'm having now is I'm getting notices from the PHP error system saying that I have 2 "Undefined variables" any idea's how to solve this small issue without turning off the display errors?

Sure, define your variables.

 

[Codarz360]

Yes I know I need to do that but how exactly would I go about it?

[BlueSkyIS]

here is an example of defining the variable $somevar:

 

$somevar = '';
