fRAiLtY- Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Hi guys, I've got this login script I've used time and time again in the past. I'm developing on networked MySQL server, so it's in a cupboard in the other room connected to our network with an internal IP. This is the only thing I can think is causing a problem? This is the index.php page, which deals with the login. In Chrome, I login and get redirected where I should. In the other browsers the page just refreshes. You'll see I change the $message variable depending on login status and this doesn't change either in FF/IE, however if I force a false login in Chrome I get the error message, as expected. <?php // Start session session_start(); // Include connection require('includes/connect.php'); // Set default message $message = "Please Login."; // Check if form is submitted if(isset($_POST['login'])) { $username = mysqli_real_escape_string($db,$_POST['username']); $password = mysqli_real_escape_string($db,md5($_POST['password'])); // Set default session status $_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "false"; // Execute query $login = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password' LIMIT 1"; if (!($result = mysqli_query($db,$login))) { die(mysqli_connect_error()); } // Check for match if not display error message if (mysqli_num_rows($result) != 1) { $message = "<p class='error-msg'>Login Failed - Please try again!</p>"; } else { // Build array of user data $userdata = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result); // Set sessions then redirect $_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "true"; $_SESSION['user'] = $username; $_SESSION['name'] = $userdata['fullname']; $_SESSION['level'] = $userdata['level']; $_SESSION['code'] = $userdata['linkedcodes']; // Check user level and forward if($userdata['level'] == 1) { header("Location:/my/admin/"); } else header("Location: /my/dashboard/"); // Exit rest of script exit; } } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>myblackwellprint.co.uk | Customer Portal</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="login-page"> <p class="login-welcome-msg"><?php echo $message; ?></p> <form id="login-form" action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post"> <p style="margin-left:80px;"><label for="login">Username: </label><input id="login" class="login-fields" type="text" name="username" /><br /> <label for="password">Password: </label><input id="password" class="login-fields" type="password" name="password" /><br /></p> <p style="margin-left:185px;"><input type="image" width="120" height="32" src="img/login_button.png" name="login" value="Login" /></p> </form> </div> </body> </html> It's very strange, naturally no errors seems to occur as to all intents and purposes the script works? Firebug reports no errors either, there's very little to the script to error!

trq Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 The Location header should be passed a url, not a relative path like it appears you are doing.

fRAiLtY- Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 Hi, Thanks for that, I have updated my code as follows (as stated earlier 10.0.0.149 is the internal IP of the machine SQL is running on. <?php // Start session session_start(); // Include connection require('includes/connect.php'); // Set default message to blank $message = "Please Login."; // Check if form is submitted if(isset($_POST['login'])) { $username = mysqli_real_escape_string($db,$_POST['username']); $password = mysqli_real_escape_string($db,md5($_POST['password'])); // Set default session status $_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "false"; // Execute query $login = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password' LIMIT 1"; if (!($result = mysqli_query($db,$login))) { die(mysqli_connect_error()); } // Check for match if not display error message if (mysqli_num_rows($result) != 1) { $message = "<p class='error-msg'>Login Failed - Please try again!</p>"; } else { // Build array of user data $userdata = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result); // Set sessions then redirect $_SESSION['loggedIn'] = "true"; $_SESSION['user'] = $username; $_SESSION['name'] = $userdata['fullname']; $_SESSION['level'] = $userdata['level']; $_SESSION['code'] = $userdata['linkedcodes']; // Check user level and forward if($userdata['level'] == 1) { header("Location: http://10.0.0.149/my/admin/"); } else header("Location: http://10.0.0.149/my/dashboard/"); // Exit rest of script exit; } } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>myblackwellprint.co.uk | Customer Portal</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="login-page"> <p class="login-welcome-msg"><?php echo $message; ?></p> <form id="login-form" action="http://10.0.0.149<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post"> <p style="margin-left:80px;"><label for="login">Username: </label><input id="login" class="login-fields" type="text" name="username" /><br /> <label for="password">Password: </label><input id="password" class="login-fields" type="password" name="password" /><br /></p> <p style="margin-left:185px;"><input type="image" width="120" height="32" src="img/login_button.png" name="login" value="Login" /></p> </form> </div> </body> </html> No change in the outcome however, page appears to just refresh in FF/IE.

EdwinPaul Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 The correct way to check if a form is submitted is NOT: // Check if form is submitted if(isset($_POST['login'])) { Some browsers do not sent the submit-button if you hit enter. You can check this by displaying the array $_POST before the line mentioned above. Better is: if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST' ){ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/241053-php-script-works-in-chrome-but-not-ie-or-firefox/#findComment-1238156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
