PHP - Simple Password With Cookie?

Hi all, i have written a fairly simple profile page that users can see once they have logged in and i have a password change feature. the user is asked to enter there current password and then enter there desired new password, then confirm there new password to make sure they match. However the users current password isn't checked as im not sure how to code it. Heres my code so far:


<?PHP

session_start();

//Database Information

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbname = "test";
$dbuser = "test";
$dbpass = "test";

//Connect to database

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

//Clean data

$_POST = array_map('strip_tags', $_POST);
$_POST = array_map('mysql_real_escape_string', $_POST);

$currentpassword = $_POST['currentpassword'];
$newpassword = $_POST['newpassword'];    
$cnewpassword = $_POST['cnewpassword'];

if($newpassword == $cnewpassword)
{  
    $query = "UPDATE `users` SET `password` = '".$newpassword."' WHERE `username` = '".$_SESSION['username']."' LIMIT 1";  
$run = mysql_query($query);
if($run) {
echo "Congratulations You have successfully changed your password";
    include 'success.php'; 
exit();
         } 
  else {
include 'password.php';
exit;
     } 
}
 else  {  
    echo "The new password and confirm new password fields must be the same";
    include 'password.php';
    exit();
        }   
 ?>


I'm guessing i need a && within the if statement to check the currentpassword with what is supplied within my database, but im not sure how to code this.

I'm trying to let the users change their password, but everytime I try.. it just changes the password to what they type in whether or not the password they currently have is right or not.. x_x
I have the password set as an MD5 so I'm guessing I have to select the password from the database as an MD5, but I don't know how to do that..

<?php
include("logincheck.php");
$newpass = $_POST['newpass'];
$username = $_SESSION['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
?>
<?php include_once("header.php"); ?>

Hello everyone:

I wanted to see how I can make a simple login page (user name and password) that redirects to a page(s) if the login is correct. Also, I wanted to put protection on the page(s) that will send the user back to the login page if the credentials are nor correct.

I would imagine the username/password would be stored in a database table (Admins), and the correct login info would be stored in a session ..?

I am use to doing this with ASP, but never PHP. I want to make sure I understand how to do this properly and securely so I can use this as a model for other systems.

In ASP I would do a protected page like this:
a_login_check.asp
Code: [Select]
<%
if session("admin_user_name") = "" then
session.abandon
response.redirect "login.asp"
end if
%>

Protected-Page.asp
Code: [Select]
<!-- #include file="include/a_check_login.asp" -->
<html>
...
CONTENT

...
</html>

And of course there is the login page itself ...
(I thought it would be nice to add a "Forgot Password" link on the login page, but if that is too complicated I can do that later .. or is it easy ??)

Anyway, can someone point-out to me how to do this.

I would appreciate it!

Hello PhP Freaks forum
In the past weeks ive been trying to make a website, where you can register. Everything seems to work except my cherished Change password feature. Everytime you try to change the password, it just resets it to nothing.

Here is the code below.

<?php
         if(isset($_SESSION['username']))
         {
            $username = $_SESSION['username'];
            $lastname = $_SESSION['lastname'];
            $firstname = $_SESSION['firstname'];
            $email = $_SESSION['email'];
               
            echo "
            
               <h4>Options for:</h4> &nbsp; $username
               <br />
               <br />
               First name: &nbsp; $firstname
            
               <br />Last name: &nbsp; $lastname       
   
   <br /><br /><h3>Want to change your password:</h3><br />
   
      <form action='?do=option' method='post'>
   
      Old password <input type='password' placeholder='Has to be between 5-15 digits' name='password' size='30' value='' /><br />
                  <br />
      New Password<input type='password' placeholder='Has to be between 5-15 digits' name='newpass' size='30' value='' /><br />
                  <br />
      Confirm new password <input type='password' placeholder='Has to be between 5-15 digits' name='passconf' size='30' value='' /><br />
                  
      <center></div><input type='submit' value='Submit'/></center></form>";   
      
            
         }else{
            echo 'Please login to view your options!';
         }
      
      $password = $_REQUEST['password'];
      $pass_conf = $_REQUEST['newpass'];
      $email = $_REQUEST['passconf'];
      
      $connect = mysql_connect("Host", "User", "Password");
      if(!$connect){
      die(mysql_error());
      }
      
      //Selecting database
      $select_db = mysql_select_db("My Database", $connect);
      if(!$select_db){
      die(mysql_error());
      }
      
      //Find if entered data is correct
      
      $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'");
      $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
      $id = $row['id'];

            
         mysql_query("UPDATE users SET password='$newpass' WHERE username='$user'")
      
      ?>          

And i do know that i dont have a

if(Empty($newpass)){
Die(Please fill out the new password)                                                 
}

Or any security on the others, but the problem just seems that it resets the password into nothing

Hope i can get this fixed

Best Regards

William Pfaffe
