Recommended Posts

Hey,
i really need this kinda urgent.

I wrote the whole thing apart from a small part in the php page which is just the creating a password.... that is the phpfreaks password something..... i got it off some part of the site

SHORT SUMMARY OF IT:
I have made it to take a username and an email address. Once done, you get taken to register.php
register.html
[code]
<form method="post" action="../../../../../site1/users/register.php">
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
      <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top">Username:</td>
      <td width="78%"><input name="username" type="text" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top">Email Address:</td>
      <td width="78%"><input name="email" type="text"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>
      <td width="78%"><input type="submit" value="Register"></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
[/code]
ok please note that in the next thing i call back registerform.html .... it is the exact same thing as register.html (which is above).. - the reason why i have two pages is because i have text on one saying other stuff....

ANYWAY...
register.php
[code]
<?

include 'db.php';

$username = $_POST['username'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$username = stripslashes($username);
$email = stripslashes($email);
if((!$username) || (!$email)){
    echo 'You didnt fill in the following fields<br />';
    if(!$username){
        echo "- Username<br />";
    }
    if(!$email){
        echo "- Email<br />";
    }
        echo "<br><br>";
        include 'register.html';
        exit();
}
    

$sql_username_check = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username='$username'");

$username_check = mysql_num_rows($sql_username_check);

if($username_check > 0){
    echo "Please fix the following error: <br />";
    if($username_check > 0){
        echo "The username you have selected has already been used by another member of this site. Please choose a different Username!<br />";
        unset($username);
    }
    include 'registerform.html';
    exit();
}


function makeRandomPassword() {
  $salt = "abchefghjkmnpqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
  srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
      $i = 0;
      while ($i <= 7) {
            $num = rand() % 33;
            $tmp = substr($salt, $num, 1);
            $pass = $pass . $tmp;
            $i++;
      }
      return $pass;
}

$random_password = makeRandomPassword();

$db_password = md5($random_password);
$info2 = htmlspecialchars($info);
$sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (username, email, password, signup_date)
        VALUES('$username', '$email', '$db_password', now())") or die (mysql_error());

if(!$sql){
    echo 'There has been an error creating your account. Please contact the through the <a href="../../../../../../forum/">forum</a> or through the contact form.';
} else {
    $userid = mysql_insert_id();

    $subject = "Blah Site - Membership Info";
    $message = "Dear $username,
    Thanks for registering...

That is all....
NOW firstly i am doing this on my laptop so i am working off apache, php5 and mysql with phpmyadmin.

My error is
Column count doesn't match value count at row 1
It is black text on a white page..... no red boxes or anything....
i thought it might be a mysql error... so here is my table
[code]
CREATE TABLE users (
  userid int(25) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  username varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
  email_address varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
  password varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
  user_level enum('0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','10') NOT NULL default '0',
  signup_date datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
  last_login datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
  activated enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',
  ban enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',
  gender enum('0','1','2') NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (userid)
) TYPE=MyISAM COMMENT='Membership Information';
[/code]
It's something along those lines.... i don't know how to get the sql out of phpmyadmin - i put it in... but i forgot to save a copy in notpad..... - bad me!

The only thing I can see wrong in there is here...

$sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (username, email, password, signup_date)
VALUES('$username', '$email', '$db_password', now())") or die (mysql_error());

you have now())''

try '" . now() ."' and see what happens.

NOW() is a mysql function not php, so as far as i can see, this line SHOULD work. 4 fields and 4 values...

Now 2nd question...

it gives me a mail function error.. it needs to be adjusted in php.ini with the details of a smtp server.

Only problem. I don't know where to find it.


I have a hotmail and a gmail account.


Is there anyway i can find the smtp address of gmail or hotmail - preferably hotmail.


I have googled it and got no where!


i have tried

mx1.hotmail.com
mx.hotmail.com
mx2.hotmail.com
mx3.hotmail.com
mx4.hotmail.com
mail.hotmail.com
smtp.hotmail.com
