Creating Register Script

Brenton · March 9, 2007

So I've been coding a register script, and I've reached an error.

Nothing displays on the webserver.

Just a blank page.

If anyone could help, that would be great.

That is the code.

You can preview it live at: http://nordaea.phpnet.us/register.php

<?php

if ($_GET['act'] == "agree") {

	if ($_GET['act'] == "submit") {
// For register_global on PHP settings
$name = $_POST['name'];
$username = $_POST['username'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$password_verify = $_POST['password_verify'];
$birthdate = $_POST['birthdate'];
$birthmonth = $_POST['birthmonth'];
$birthyear = $_POST['birthyear'];

// Check for empty fields
if ( empty($username) || empty($email) || empty($password) || empty($password_verify)  || empty($name) || empty($birthdate) || empty($birthmonth) || empty($birthyear)) {
    die ("Error! Please fill in <b>all</ b> fields, they are all required. <br /> <a href="register.php?act=agree">Go Back</a>");
}

// Check that email is valid
if (!(ereg ("^.+@.+\..+$", $email))) {
	die ("Error. $email appears to be invalid, please enter a valid email. <br /> <a href="register.php?act=agree">Go Back</a>");
} 

//  Create 6 digit activation code
function randomstring($len)	{
	srand(date("s"));
	while($i<$len) {
		$str.=chr((rand()%26)+97);
		$i++;
	}

	$str=$str.substr(uniqid (""),0,22);
	return $str;
}

// Now generate the 6-digit code
$code = randomstring(6);    // 6 for a 6-digit code
$code = substr("$code", 0, 6);

// Now email the user registration details
    $from = "accounts@nordaea.com";
    $subject = "Registration @ Nordaea"; 

    $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; 
    $headers = "From: Nordaea<$from>\n";
    $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; 

    $message = "Hi $name, <br><br> Thank you for creating an account at Nordaea! Below is the information you registered with, and the information required to activate your account: <br>";
    $message .= "Username: $username<br> Password: $password <br> ";
    $message .= "First to access your account, you must activate it, please paste the following link into your web broswer: <strong>http://nordaea.com/register.php?act=activate&code=$code</strong> to activate your account.<br><br>";
    $message .= "If you have any problems whatsoever activating your account, please reply to this email with your problem, please be as detailed as possible.";

        $insert = "insert into membership (name, username, email, password, password_verify, birthdate, birthmonth, birthyear) VALUES (So yes, according to the PHP tutorials i read, values go here, but I have NO idea how to do it properly.)";
        $query = mysql_query($insert) or die     ("Could not execute: $query." . mysql_error());
        
        if ($query) {
            echo "<p>Thank you $name. Please check your email, information about how to activate your account has been sent to $email, if you cannot find the email in your inbox be sure to take a look at your junk mails.</p>";

It's still blank, have I done something wrong?

Here's the code now.

The "END" of a heredoc must be in the first column, it can't be indented.
