registration.php

Change

include('functions.php);

To

include('functions.php');

peranha · December 10, 2007

include('functions.php);

you missed the closing '

ChompGator · December 10, 2007

haha stupid ass mistake eh.

Alright, works now, next problem is parse error on line 7

ChompGator · December 10, 2007

I tried editing line 7, but nothing worked, nothing I could think of at least.

What happens is, the parse error isn't on the registration.php page, the parse error comes after you submit the form.

Thanks

You call valid_email & checkUnique functions, but in your functions file its called

EmailValidation and I don't even see a checkUnique function.

ChompGator · December 10, 2007

You know what

I mis-read it, its actually a

Fatal error: Call to undefined function valid_email() in D:\hosting\member\aiim\site2\registration.php on line 7

But it looks like you were right, let me fix it, Ill let you know if it worked!

Thanks

Hello,

I have this registration script Im playing with, and Im getting a parse error on line 5, and Ill post the error below, also below is my script.

I was wondering if someone could see the error on my line 5.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';' in D:\hosting\member\aiim\site2\testing\registration.php on line 5

All the ';' I see on my line 5, belong there

<?php
require_once('db.php');
include('functions.php');

if($_GET['ID']!='' && numeric($_GET['ID'])==TRUE && strlen($_GET['key'])==32 && alpha_numeric($_GET['key'])==TRUE)
{

	$query = mysql_query("SELECT ID, Random_key, Active FROM jetblue WHERE ID = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['ID'])."'");

	if(mysql_num_rows($query)==1)
	{
		$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query);
		if($row['Active']==1)
		{
			$error = 'This member is already active !';
		}
		elseif($row['Random_key']!=$_GET['key'])
		{
			$error = 'The confirmation key that was generated for this member does not match with the one entered !';
		}
		else
		{
			$update = mysql_query("UPDATE jetblue SET Active=1 WHERE ID='".mysql_real_escape_string($row['ID'])."'") or die(mysql_error());
			$msg = 'Congratulations !  You just confirmed your membership !';
		}
	}
	else {

		$error = 'User not found !';

	}

}
else {

	$error = 'Invalid data provided !';

}

if(isset($error))
{
	echo $error;
}
else {
	echo $msg;
}
?>

Post your actual code. Line 5 in your last post is well foobar'd.

The errors are pretty self explanatory. Did you write this code? Do you know how it works?

checkUnique expects 3 arguments, here...

checkUnique('Username', $_POST['username'])

you only pass two. This causes a domino effect.

ChompGator · December 11, 2007

Not all of it nope, I wrote all my other codes, but I couldn't figure this one out, so I copied and pasted some of the stuff, and figured I edited all the applicable code appropriately.

Ill look more at it.

Thanks
