Login.php custom script T_String error

[evlj]

Script:

 

<?php

//Database Information

$dbhost = "sssst";
$dbname = "sssst";
$dbuser = "ssss";
$dbpass = "ssss";

//Connect to database

mysql_connect ( $dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());

session_start();
$username = $_POST[‘username’];
$password = md5($_POST[‘password’]);

$query = “select * from users where username=’$username’ and password=’$password’”;

$result = mysql_query($query);

if (mysql_num_rows($result) != 1) {
$error = “Bad Login”;
    include “login.html”;

} else {
    $_SESSION[‘username’] = “$username”;
    include “memberspage.php”;
}

?>

 

What's wrong on line 19: $query = “select * from users where username=’$username’ and password=’$password’”;

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/stalker/public_html/login.php on line 19

Your using weird quotes throughout that code.

it is quotes issue ;

try this :

 

$query = "select * from users where username='$username' and password='$password'";

use this

 

<?php

//Database Information

$dbhost = "sssst";
$dbname = "sssst";
$dbuser = "ssss";
$dbpass = "ssss";

//Connect to database

mysql_connect ( $dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());

session_start();
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = md5($_POST['password']);

$query = "select * from users where username='$username' and password='$password'";

$result = mysql_query($query);

if (mysql_num_rows($result) != 1) {
$error = "Bad Login";
    include "login.html";

} else {
    $_SESSION['username'] = "$username";
    include "memberspage.php";
}

?>
