anakalia Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'm brand new here, I hope no one minds me jumping straight in, but I've been going crazy working on this project!I'm more of a designer than a coder and have learnt php and MySQL from [i]Foundation PHP for Dreamweaver 8[/i] by David Powers. This project I'm working on is a website for magazine users to login and manage their subscription online. They come across the page login.php and continue on to myhome.php. I had been using the session [MM_Username] to show the user's information when they logged in, but everytime, I would get the information for user 1, no matter what user logged in. After going crazy with that for a while, I decided to try passing the user's id number via a URL Param (user_id) from the login.php page to the myhome.php. But this is the error I get:[quote]Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in login.php on line 53[/quote]And this is the code I'm working with (not all, but what I think is the important parts). The bold line is line 53:[tt]mysql_select_db($database_userconn, $userconn);$query_userid = "SELECT user_id, users.username FROM users";$userid = mysql_query($query_userid, $userconn) or die(mysql_error());$row_userid = mysql_fetch_assoc($userid);$totalRows_userid = mysql_num_rows($userid);?><?php// *** Validate request to login to this site.if (!isset($_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']; $MM_fldUserAuthorization = ""; [b]$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "user/myhome.php?user_id=<?php echo $row_userid['user_id']; ?>";[/b] $MM_redirectLoginFailed = "loginfailed.php"; $MM_redirecttoReferrer = false; mysql_select_db($database_userconn, $userconn); $LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT username, password FROM users WHERE username=%s AND password=%s", GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text")); $LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $userconn) or die(mysql_error()); $loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS); if ($loginFoundUser) { $loginStrGroup = ""; //declare two session variables and assign them $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername; $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup; if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) { $MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl']; } header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess ); } else { header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed ); }}?>[/tt]I appreciate any help I can get. As I said, I'm more a designer than a coder, and it's driving me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
