PHP - Personalizing Pages Of A Website With Php
I'm am somewhat new to PHP and am trying to set up a website for my cousin's wedding. Her idea is to have the guests sign in with a user/pass that she provides, and once they sign in, they will be taken to a page that has their name on it (i.e. "Mr. and Mrs. So and So, you are invited...). I have come to the conclusion that I will need to make an image for each guest's name (she wants to use a font for their names that nobody will have on their computer) so what I need to know is:
How do I link each user name to their own personalized webpage, where the image of their name on the next page will change based on what username is entered? The php code I have right now is this (i'm sorry it's so long, I just don't want to leave anything out that might be important): $LOGIN_INFORMATION = array( 'steve' => 'password', 'rick' => 'password', 'tom'=> 'password' ); // request login? true - show login and password boxes, false - password box only define('USE_USERNAME', true); // User will be redirected to this page after logout define('LOGOUT_URL', 'http://www.example.com/'); // time out after NN minutes of inactivity. Set to 0 to not timeout define('TIMEOUT_MINUTES', 0); // This parameter is only useful when TIMEOUT_MINUTES is not zero // true - timeout time from last activity, false - timeout time from login define('TIMEOUT_CHECK_ACTIVITY', true); ################################################################## # SETTINGS END ################################################################## /////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // do not change code below /////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // show usage example if(isset($_GET['help'])) { die('Include following code into every page you would like to protect, at the very beginning (first line):<br><?php include("' . str_replace('\\','\\\\',__FILE__) . '"); ?>'); } // timeout in seconds $timeout = (TIMEOUT_MINUTES == 0 ? 0 : time() + TIMEOUT_MINUTES * 60); // logout? if(isset($_GET['logout'])) { setcookie("verify", '', $timeout, '/'); // clear password; header('Location: ' . LOGOUT_URL); exit(); } if(!function_exists('showLoginPasswordProtect')) { // show login form function showLoginPasswordProtect($error_msg) { ?> <html> <head> <title>Please enter password to access this page</title> <META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <style type="text/css"> body,td,th { font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #666; } body { background-color: #FFFFFB; } </style> </head> <body> <div align="center"> <style> input { border: 1px solid black; } </style> <div style="width:600px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; text-align:center"> <form method="post"> <h4>Please sign in using the information provided on the invitation</h4> <font color="red"><?php echo $error_msg; ?></font><br /> <?php if (USE_USERNAME) echo 'Login:<br /><input type="input" name="access_login" /><br />Password:<br />'; ?> <input type="password" name="access_password" /><p></p><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" /> </form> <br /> <a style="font-size:9px; color: #B0B0B0; font-family: Verdana, Arial;" href="http://www.zubrag.com/scripts/password-protect.php" title="Download Password Protector">Powered by Password Protect</a> </div> </body> </html> <?php // stop at this point die(); } } // user provided password if (isset($_POST['access_password'])) { $login = isset($_POST['access_login']) ? $_POST['access_login'] : ''; $pass = $_POST['access_password']; if (!USE_USERNAME && !in_array($pass, $LOGIN_INFORMATION) || (USE_USERNAME && ( !array_key_exists($login, $LOGIN_INFORMATION) || $LOGIN_INFORMATION[$login] != $pass ) ) ) { showLoginPasswordProtect("Incorrect password."); } else { // set cookie if password was validated setcookie("verify", md5($login.'%'.$pass), $timeout, '/'); // Some programs (like Form1 Bilder) check $_POST array to see if parameters passed // So need to clear password protector variables unset($_POST['access_login']); unset($_POST['access_password']); unset($_POST['Submit']); } } else { // check if password cookie is set if (!isset($_COOKIE['verify'])) { showLoginPasswordProtect(""); } // check if cookie is good $found = false; foreach($LOGIN_INFORMATION as $key=>$val) { $lp = (USE_USERNAME ? $key : '') .'%'.$val; if ($_COOKIE['verify'] == md5($lp)) { $found = true; // prolong timeout if (TIMEOUT_CHECK_ACTIVITY) { setcookie("verify", md5($lp), $timeout, '/'); } break; } } if (!$found) { showLoginPasswordProtect(""); } } ?> ************************************************************** THANK YOU SO MUCH for any help!! Sam Similar TutorialsI got a question regarding a news website content that i want to make ! my question is how do i call my contents without using a lot of page? i explain let's say i got 10 news how do i put this 10 news in different pages without using 10 pages ? ex: you can see some links having a number like this http://bbc.uk/news/murder_case-12 then the next page got http://bbc.uk/news/finance-13 the title and the number id change but the page news doesnt change thanks for your answer. I made this for my site and decided to share with the community. Depending on how you do the code and where, this can keep count of the views in different ways. Please read the somewhat directions have in the code, make a folder called counters, and be sure to include this below function file. I named the function file index.php and belongs in the counters folder you make. <?php /* name this file index.php and place it into a folder called counters the function will create a unique text file for each unique item, good for posts or pages and store all the files in the counters folder For the total website views,add this to your header file or top of your page <?php include('counters/index.php'); $website_view_url = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; } $website_views = getViews("$website_view_url"); echo "<br />".$website_views."<br />"; ?> For the total pages or scripts views,add this to your header file or top of your page <?php include('counters/index.php'); $total_page_view_url = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; } $total_page_views = getViews("$total_page_view_url"); echo "<br />".$total_page_views."<br />"; ?> For entire urls including queries,add this to your header file or top of your page <?php include('counters/index.php'); $page_queries_view_url = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; if (!empty($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"])) { $page_queries_view_url .= "?".$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; } $page_queries_views = getViews("$page_queries_view_url"); echo "<br />".$page_views."<br />"; ?> for usage in posts like by id: if do not want the pages counted and did not do the above code,include the below somewhere near the beginning of your page <?php include('counters/index.php');?> Then in the posts loop, you can associate your $row['id']; or some other unique value <?php $post_views = $row['id']; $post_views = getViews("$post_views"); echo "<br />Post Views ".$post_views."<br />"; ?> if would like to combine any the above or use them all, just be sure to just include include('counters/index.php'); only one time */ function getViews($views_count_value) { $views_count_value = md5("$views_count_value"); $views_count_file_name = "counters/$views_count_value.txt"; if (!file_exists($views_count_file_name)) { $views_count =0; $file_handle = fopen($views_count_file_name, 'w') or die("can't open file"); fwrite($file_handle, "$views_count"); fclose($file_handle); } $file_handle = fopen($views_count_file_name, "r"); $views_count = fread($file_handle, filesize("$views_count_file_name")); fclose($file_handle); if ($views_count <= 0){ $views_count =1; } else { ++$views_count; } $file_handle = fopen($views_count_file_name, "w+"); fwrite($file_handle, "$views_count"); fclose($file_handle); return("$views_count"); } ?> I'm trying to make a League of Legends (a video game) community website, both as a personal project and for practice. Now the game has a lot of champions, each of whom have 5 unique abilities. Now, I thought about manually inputting all the details about each champion into a MySQL database, but that would long and tedious, and I don't really have the time for it now. Also, the game patches very oftern (like, once every 2 weeks) which changes many of the stats, etc. of the champion, and it is not possible for me to keep manually updating these every time there is a patch. Fortunately, there is a League of Legends Wiki which has all the data I need in their specific champion pages, which they keep updated per patch. So I was wondering if there was any way to get the data from the divs in the wiki, and have it display on my site. What I want to do in my website is that whenever someone types a champion's name (in a post or whatever), I want it to display a hover-over dialog with some of the champions details. And a lot of other features such as that. In plain English I need a way to : > Tell PHP to go to the wiki's source code on a specific page > Find a specific div container > Get X data from there > Pass X data into a function to display the hover-over I think this way, I would not have to maintain a database as I can leech off the wiki's data. I have not coded anything like this before, so I would like a few pointers as to how to achieve this. Any help will be appreciated! hello My database is in a same server with seperate domain name , then I want to insert from website1 mysql data on website2 mysql data. can anyone help me? I tried searching on google but couldn't find any relevant information, please redirect me to relevant source or help me with the code. I want to pass a domain name in text field which will be scanned and then the script will display entire site map. Not external links or links on a page. Sorry it is not easy for me to explain. Eg. if i pass abc.com Script will display abc.com/12/adn.php abc.com/asd/asd/ etc Whatever their url format is. All the links on that domain. Is it possible to download files from a website to my online websites root directory? reason I'm asking is because I have been downloading large video files to my computer which take about 20 minutes!! Then I use FTP to upload them to my site but it takes about 2-3 hours per video!! I was looking for a faster way! All help would be great! like if I'm displaying a hundred entries , my website will be super long in length so I wanna break those hundred entries into maybe like 12 per page . Then click next page or the page number to view the next 12. hi guy's i have on one page select from table, and i don't know how to limit showing content from database on 3, and rest to make number under it and when i click on that number next 3 is showen? Something like on forum when you have more topics then you can show, on botom of page are showen numbers (links). Can some explain me how to do this? i put in while loop something like this Code: [Select] while ($prom = mysql_fetch_object($res) and $i<3) and now it is limited on showing first 3, my problem is showing next 3, and if there is more how to split it on 3 per page? Hello everyone, this is my first post. This isn't just a simple post and leave, I'm looking to expand into this community and learn as much as I can. Well on to the problem at hand! I decided to start with something simple as a login page and now want to expand it to make it fully functional.

I tried to use start_session() in my check() function. I know I should be using cookies, but I haven't gotten that far yet. Is it possible to use my check function as a way to block pages? I tried inserting the same code that is in check.php onto a html page, but I've had no luck with it redirecting back to my index.html page. Hi, I am looking for reliable, effective code to cache one or two of my website webpages. I know there are packages like the pear cache lite but is far beyond my needs and complex in terms of never used pear before etc. I am looking for a good cache class perhaps or a link to a good cache script. Does anyone have any code they would like to share or know of any good cache classes etc? I want to keep it relatively simple if possible. Thanks for any suggestions, help. PHPLOVER Hey, i was wondering if anyone knew how i could make a script so when i register a new account... There will be made a link in members.php and when you go there you see the new registered (and the old ones) name... And once you click it you get into their page (their page should be created when registering a new account). Im pretty blank how to do it so ill ask you guys :/ Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me to "get" the webaddress of a current webpage and then pull off pieces of the page. All of my pages look like: http://localhost:8888/algebra_book/Chapters/Quadratic_Functions/introductory_problem.php BUT, the stuff to the left of Quadratic Functions WILL change in the future. So all will look like: *Quadratic_Functions/introductory_problem.php Then, I'd like to pull off a $chapter variable, which in this case is Quadratic_Functions and a $page_name variable which in this case will be introductory_problem. Thanks so much. How can I go about making dynamic pages? eg. user types "phpfreaks.com/index.php?page=name" Hi, I hope someone can help. I currently have a page that includes the main page after login, however I am looking into changing this so that when a user logs in they get 3/4 linked images that, when clicked dynamically load/include the page based on the select i.e. user selects the image laptop, that has a hyperlink, it loads the laptop page. If anyone has any ideas or suggestion,i'd appreciate it. I want to use my form variables in other page which is not specified in action attribute. Please help me out !!! My code is below :
