Weird Cookie Problem	View Content

I have a very odd cookie problem that's hard to explain so please bare with me...

The first piece of code found below is the login process, where the login is checked and the cookie is created or not, the second piece of code below is a library which is called to display the login menu and get the connection to the database.

The problem I'm having is I cant put these 2 files in the same folder. The cookie gets created if i put the process login into a directory and the library into a sub directory called inc ... then i "include("inc/library.php");" in the login process. I then point the form for the login to http://www.alcaeos.com/blog/loginProcess.php...

If I do these 2 things then the cookie is created but if I place both files in the inc folder (The code below is the example of when both files are IN the inc folder) then the cookie does not get created. the login system still works and tells the user if they successfully logged in or not, it just wont create the cookie... It's an odd problem I think. Has anybody got any ideas... Thanks

Code: [Select]

<?php

include("library.php");

connectToDatabase();

$username = $_GET['username'];
$password = $_GET['password'];

$sql = "SELECT * FROM theUsers WHERE user = '$username' AND pass = '$password';";

$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

if ($obj = mysql_fetch_object($result))
{
$expire=time()+60*60*24*30;
setcookie("shopusername",$username,$expire);
echo "<A HREF='http://www.alcaeos.com/blog/test.php'>You are logged in</A>";

}

else
{
loginScreen();
echo "You are NOT Logged In";
}

$db->close();

?>

Code: [Select]

<?php

function loginScreen()
{

$output = <<<LOGIN

<FORM method ="GET" action="http://www.alcaeos.com/blog/loginProcess.php">
<table>
<tr>
<td>Username: </td>
<td><INPUT TYPE = "text" NAME = "username"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password: </td>
<td><INPUT TYPE = "password" NAME = "password"></td>
</tr>
</table>

<INPUT TYPE="submit">
</FORM>

LOGIN;

echo $output;
}

function connectToDatabase()
{
$dbhost = 'mysql*******';
$dbuser = 'kem*******';
$dbpass = 'ya****';

$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die('Error connecting to mysql');

$dbname = 'ke********';
mysql_select_db($dbname);
}

Okay, so basically my news-like site is supposed to print out article data saved in the database. It does that quite alright, except on the 3rd article (number 2 in SQL rows or columns. whichever it is. I have my counter subtract 1 from the start article to compensate for MySQL)

My code:
Code: [Select]
<?php
print "<div class = 'menu' align='center'>Newest Stories</div>";

if (isset($_REQUEST['mstart']))
{
$start=$_REQUEST['mstart'];
}
else
{
$start=1;
}
if ($start)
{
$start=1;
}

$start--;
$end=$start+5;
$stories = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM stories ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $start, $end") or die(mysql_error());
$num = mysql_num_rows($stories);
$start++;

if ($num > 0)
{
if ($num<$end)
{
$end = $end-(5-$num);
}
print "<b><i>Showing stories $start to $end</i></b>";

for ($count=0; $count<$num; $count++)
{
print "<hr>";
$story = mysql_fetch_array($stories,$count);
$id = $story['id'];
$headline = $story['headline'];
$author = $story['author'];
$desc = $story['description'];
$content = $story['content'];

print "COUNT: $count OF $num ($id)<br>";
print "<a href='index.php?request=story&mstart=$start&story=$id' class='headlinelink'>$headline</a><br>";
print "<div class='author'>Posted by: <a href='index.php?request=author&mstart=$start&author=$author' class='author'>$author</a>.</div>";
print "<div class='desc'>$desc</div><br>";
}

}
else
{
print "Error. No stories found. :(";
}

?>

Output: (The COUNT x OF y was to help me figure out what is wrong. In the () by it is the id number of the corresponding MySQL row/column. I even deleted one of the articles to see if it was a specific article error. No luck.)

Weird Update Problem

I have a function that contains 2 UPDATE commands. One updates a table whenever the function is ran. The second updates only if a condition is met.

When the page loads the function is ran. For some reason the table is updated twice. So my table looks like this:

Initially
Viewed: 0 Replies: 0

Navigate to page:
Viewed:2 Replies:0

Enter a reply and submit:
Veiwed:4 Replies:1

No matter where I move the "viewed +1" code, it fires twice per page impression. Is this a glitch? Do functions run twice for some reason? If so why doesn't "reply +1" fire twice?

//page loads as forum.php?goto=innertopic
function connectForum(){
     //connects DB
     if($_GET['goto'] == "innertopic"){
          detailTopic();
     }
}
function detailTopic(){
     if(isset($_POST['content']{ //if there is a reply to a post
          mysql_query("UPDATE topics SET Replies=Replies+1") //works fine
     }
     else{ //no reply, just show all posts
          mysql_query("UPDATE topics SET Views=Views+1") //fires 2 times per page load .. ?!?!?
          //show posts
          //show reply window, posts to forum.php?goto=innertopic&&content=whateverTheUserTyped
     }
}

//html of page

if($_GET['goto'] == "innertopic"){
     connectForum();
}

Weird Array Problem

I have an array that displays the following information with the print_r function:

Array
(
=> Array
(
=> 2206.235 [1] => 3.9
[2] => 0.48
[3] => 0.477
[4] => 0.477
[5] => 0.475

[215] => 0.434
[216] => 0.436
[217] => 0.435
[218] => 0.434
[219] => 0.435
[220] => 0.435
)
)
Array

(
=> 2206.235 [1] => 3.9
[2] => 0.48
[3] => 0.48
[4] => 0.435
[5] => 0.435
)
)

I would like to save the last row to my database which in this case is 220 but the last row could vary from time to time as the array is created from an email attachment so l wanted a code that would find the number of rows in the array.

When l echo out the row like this: echo $matches[0][210] it retrieves the correct information so l wanted to implement this code instead to cater for an unknown amount of array rows so that the highest row was always returned:

$i = count($matches[0]);

echo $matches[0][$i];

but this does not work as when echoing $i the result is 2216 instead of 220 which l find odd or l am doing something wrong. Any ideas?

thanks Callum

Some Weird Include Problem?

Similar Tutorials

Hey guys!

Well this is actually kind of a weird problem I have been having, and not too sure why I'm getting this problem. I've tried a lot of stuff, and it doesnt seem like I've been able to find a solution. I've been trying for about a month.

Anyways, I have a website created with some OOP. Well, once I write an include statement to include a file, which then includes all my classes, it messes up my font, moves my website content down, and well.. it just does weird stuff.

However, once I comment the include out, the website looks normal again.

so basically, I can comment out the file itself and everything is just fine. But it only happens when I include my class files.

Any ideas or suggestions would be amazing! Thank you!

A Weird While Loop Problem !

Hello there,

I am making a function to execute every time with a new demand no. in the while loop below. Every thing goes fine for the first time when the page loads, all the taxes come perfectly and each record is being read with the function calculateTaxes($demandno). But, when I press the search button with blank entries... All the entries come with only the first record. Means, the calculateTaxes function is not being loaded again and again with the loop when the press the search button.

Please help.

I have an array from the database like so

Array (2)
(

|    (
|    |    ['f_fid'] = String(1) "1"
|    |    ['0'] = String(1) "1"
|    |    ['f_names'] = String(99) "a:4:{i:0;s:18:"register_user_name";i:1;s:5:"r_u_n";i:2;s:10:"user_alias";i:3;s:12:"nickusername";} "
|    |    ['1'] = String(99) "a:4:{i:0;s:18:"register_user_name";i:1;s:5:"r_u_n";i:2;s:10:"user_alias";i:3;s:12:"nickusername";} "

|    ['1'] => Array (4)

|    |    ['f_fid'] = String(1) "2"
|    |    ['0'] = String(1) "2"
|    |    ['f_names'] = String(104) "a:4:{i:0;s:18:"register_password";i:1;s:5:"r_pass_word";i:2;s:10:"user_pass";i:3;s:12:"reg-pass-word";} "

|    )
)

So i use a foreach loop to turn the serialized value into an array

foreach($fields as $key => $val)
    {
        $fields[$key]['f_names'] = unserialize($val['f_names']);
    }

But for some reason the last f_names is false

Array (2)
(
|    ['0'] => Array (4)
|    (
|    |    ['f_fid'] = String(1) "1"
|    |    ['0'] = String(1) "1"
|    |    ['f_names'] => Array (4)
|    |    (
|    |    |    ['0'] = String(18) "register_user_name"
|    |    |    ['1'] = String(5) "r_u_n"
|    |    |    ['2'] = String(10) "user_alias"
|    |    |    ['3'] = String(12) "nickusername"
|    |    )
|    |    ['1'] = String(99) "a:4:{i:0;s:18:"register_user_name";i:1;s:5:"r_u_n";i:2;s:10:"user_alias";i:3;s:12:"nickusername";} "
|    )
|    ['1'] => Array (4)
|    (
|    |    ['f_fid'] = String(1) "2"
|    |    ['0'] = String(1) "2"
|    |    ['f_names'] = Boolean(0) FALSE
|    |    ['1'] = String(104) "a:4:{i:0;s:18:"register_password";i:1;s:5:"r_pass_word";i:2;s:10:"user_pass";i:3;s:12:"reg-pass-word";} "

)

Anyone have any idea why?

Weird Include Problem

I am simple using include to include a file within the webpage.

include $file;

$file does exist and is a string. This works fine locally but when testing on my live server it isnt included and nothing below the include is executed, not even plain html.

The error log shows nothing, and there are no errors on screen even when using E_ALL. So i decided to make $file point to the file on the server to see if it was picking it up and it does. So why doesnt the live server want to include this file?

The file consists of php and html but there arent any errors. It wouldnt work locally if there were.

Any ideas?

Cookie Problem

Hello,

I am new to this forum and joined in hope I could get some help in relation to some PHP problems I have stumbled across within my work. I am currently working on an online store I am building from scratch. I have already built the basic system behind it and am now starting to implement a more user friendly design to it with JS validation, stylesheets and imaging layout.

I have however come across a COOKIE problem with my login script. The purpose behind it is to only allow users into an area if they have logged in and declared cookies. I declare the cookies with 'setcookie()' then try and retrieve them with '$_COOKIE['firstname'];'.

However since implementing my new design layout it has stopped being able to retrieve the cookies. Here is some of the script. I would greatly appreciate any help given ...

Login.php
Code: [Select]
<?php
//Validating input details and executing mysql query
if ($username && $pass)

$query = "SELECT firstname, lastname, username FROM userdata WHERE password=SHA('$pass')"; //Retrieves firstname and lastname for username and password combination
$result = @mysql_query ($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_array ($result,MYSQL_NUM); //Return a record, if applicable
if ($row) {

} else { //no record matched the query
echo "<p class='Body-error-P'><span class='Body-text-T'>The username and password you entered are not valid.</span></p>";
}
mysql_close(); //close database connection

Php Cookie Problem

Similar Tutorials

I'm having trouble setting a cookie in php. When a user logs in I send an ajax request to an file which contains this code to set the cookie

setcookie("userCookie", $_SESSION['username'], time()+60*60*24*30);

However when I include the following code to check to see if the cookie has been set is says is hasn't

if(isset($_COOKIE['userCookie'])) {
echo("cookie set");
} else { echo("cookie not set"); }

I check to see that my browser is accepting cookies and it definitely is so I'm not sure what causing the problem.

Thanks for any help.

A Cookie Problem

Similar Tutorials

Hello

A few days back I searched for a (very) easy php login script, basicly just to show hidden content that's not for everyone.
This is the script I found (and it works):

<?php
$username = "Username";
$password = "Password";
$randomword = "one";

if (isset($_COOKIE['MyLoginPage'])) {
   if ($_COOKIE['MyLoginPage'] == md5($password.$randomword)) {
?>
<?php
include 'projecten_.php';
$name = "0";
?>
<?php
      exit;
   } else {
      echo "<p>Bad cookie. Clear please clear them out and try to login again.</p>";
      exit;
   }
}

if (isset($_GET['p']) && $_GET['p'] == "login") {
   if ($_POST['name'] != $username) {
      echo "<p>Sorry, that username does not match. Use your browser back button to go back and try again.</p>";
      exit;
   } else if ($_POST['pass'] != $password) {
      echo "<p>Sorry, that password does not match. Use your browser back button to go back and try again.</p>";
      exit;
   } else if ($_POST['name'] == $username && $_POST['pass'] == $password) {
      setcookie('MyLoginPage', md5($_POST['pass'].$randomword));
      header("Location: $_SERVER[PHP_SELF]");
   } else {
      echo "<p>Sorry, you could not be logged in at this time. Refresh the page and try again.</p>";
   }
}
?>

<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Login" style="margin-top: 10px;" /></form>
</div>

</body>

The only problem is, there is no log out fuction. I see this script works with cookies and I gave it a try, and I ended up with nothing but errors.

Does anyone one has an idea to how a logout script would look like for this script?

Thanks in advance,

Weird Problem Drives Me Crazy

Similar Tutorials

I'm trying to get a remote html page but I'm having a really weird problem.
I'm using curl for that and I'm getting the page url from an rss item using simpelpie.

Code: [Select]
$url = $item->get_permalink();//simplepie function
echo "<p>Getting $url. </p>";
$options = array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true, // return web page
CURLOPT_HEADER => false, // don't return headers
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "", // handle all encodings
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 120, // timeout on connect
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 120, // timeout on response
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10, // stop after 10 redirects
);

$ch = curl_init( $url );
curl_setopt_array( $ch, $options );
$content = curl_exec( $ch );
$err = curl_errno( $ch );
$errmsg = curl_error( $ch );
$header = curl_getinfo( $ch );
curl_close( $ch );

$header['errno'] = $err;
$header['errmsg'] = $errmsg;
$header['content'] = $content;
if($err != 0)
echo " $err : $errmsg</p>";
echo $header['content'];

My problem is that although the page is loading fine ( no curl errors ) , some tags are missing (and particularly the tags that containing the article content of that page).
When I'm hardcoding the url then everything is fine.
I tried to print the url that simpepie gets from rss and it's identical with the one that I'm harcoding.
So,

Code: [Select]
$url = $item->get_permalink();
not working

Code: [Select]
$url = "http://www.the_same_url.com"
working.

Any help whould be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Timestamp Script Weird Problem

Similar Tutorials

Hi!

To calculate my real time hours worked for/at a client I've made 3scripts, 1 to start the time, 1 to show the running time and 1 for stopping it.
The first and last are put into my hosted DB. I'm accessing them through SSH so that I don't need my laptop all the time.

Now here's the problem, when I start the time and I look into my DB I see the actual correct time and date (timestamp), but when I execute the script for stopping it the start time changes, so for example I started at 9:00, that time will be changed to for example 11:00 when I stop it... very strange, here are my scripts:

start:

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Brussels');
$timestamp = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$conn = mysql_connect('server' 'user', 'pw') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('hystudi_timesheets', $conn) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_query("INSERT INTO timesheet (t_start_timestamp) VALUES ('$timestamp')", $conn) or die(mysql_error());
?>

stop:

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Brussels');
$timestamp = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$conn = mysql_connect('server', 'user', 'pw') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('hystudi_timesheets', $conn) or die(mysql_error());
$records = mysql_query("SELECT id, t_start_timestamp FROM timesheet ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($records)) {
$id = $row['id'];
$start_timestamp = date("U", strtotime($row['t_start_timestamp']));
}
$duration = (date("U", strtotime($timestamp)) - $start_timestamp) / 3600; // duration
mysql_query("UPDATE timesheet SET t_end_timestamp = '$timestamp', t_calculated_time = '".round($duration,2)."' WHERE id = $id", $conn) or die(mysql_error());
?>

Anyone sees what I'm doing wrong here? Or could it be my server? It's a shared host

Cookie Problem: Only Sets Last One

Similar Tutorials

Hello community,

I am trying to create a login script, but in the HTTP Header it only sends the last cookie set.

I first tried this code:

$expire=time()+60*60*24;
setcookie("gcg_user",$userid,$expire);
setcookie("gcg_name",$username,$expire);
setcookie("gcg_pass",$password,$expire);

But it only set the gcg_pass cookie. Someone else suggested me to use header():

$expire=date(DATE_RFC822,time()+60*60*24);
header('Set-Cookie: gcg_user="'.$userid.'"; expires='.$expire.';');
header('Set-Cookie: gcg_name="'.$username.'"; expires='.$expire.';',false);
header('Set-Cookie: gcg_pass="'.$password.'"; expires='.$expire.';',false);

But again it only sets the last cookie.
The first code has been working fine on another server. Do I have to adjust anything in php.ini?

Unexplainable Cookie Problem

Similar Tutorials

Alright so I have coded a login system, and logging in works. But I just noticed that logging out did not work. I tried making a test cookie at the very top of my document, and it worked. I couldn't find out why, because there's really nothing in between than can be causing it. I tried moving the code down line by line until it stopped working, it happened after a block of html code. Makes no sense to me at all.

Here's the working code, it sets the cookie and returns "Set":

Here's the same code a few lines down, cookie is not being set and returns "Not set":

Why? XD I tried removing that entire div-block but then the code would just stop working a bit further down in my document. It's a challenge to you, phpfreaks

Session And Cookie Problem

Similar Tutorials

hello all,

I have a client that wants to protect their web page with a password protected landing page. Once the password is entered the user is directed to a "disclaimer" page that they have to agree to first before going into the site. I have put both the landing page and the disclaimer page in my root directory and then the site I put in a sub directory /cms/

in the main site index.php I check for the post password and then set a $_COOKIE for the user that will expire in 1 month
<?php
// this goes on the very top of the index.php file in the template you are using
//check if user has entered password and needs cookie set
if(isset($_POST['fpass']) && !isset($_COOKIE['fpass'])) setcookielive('fpass', $_POST['fpass'], strtotime( '+1 month' ));

function setcookielive($name, $value='', $expire=0, $path='', $domain='', $secure=false, $httponly=false) {
    //set a cookie as usual, but ALSO add it to $_COOKIE so the current page load has access
    $_COOKIE[$name] = $value;
    return setcookie($name,$value,$expire,$path,$domain,$secure,$httponly);
}

The next thing I do is check if a user is trying to access the main site with having the COOKIE - if so I redirect the user to the landing page
//check if user has not entered password
if (!isset($_COOKIE['fpass']) || $_COOKIE['fpass'] == "") header('location: http://www.mypage.com');

This works fine up to this point.
Now my problem is that I also need to check if a user has the month long cookie set but is trying to access the main page without viewing the disclaimer page first.
I thought this would work:
//check if the user has a cookie set but is on a new session
if (isset($_COOKIE['fpass']) && !isset($_SESSION['fpass'])) header('location: http://www.mypage.com/disclaimer.php');
But this only throws the user into a loop of "disclaimer" -> "landing page" -> "disclaimer" etc. They can never get into the main site.

How do I check for the cookie and whether the user has visited the disclaimer page - but then allow the user to continue once they go to the disclaimer page?

NB: the $_SESSION is not set until the main site.

Curl Cookie Problem

Similar Tutorials

Hey guys,
I have developed an script which opens or fetches a page using curl, now the problem is the url i am trying to fetch follows lot of redirects(say 302) and in between it stores several cookies also which i don't know or guess.
So i was just thinking, is there any way so that i can automatically store the cookies in a particular file which server wants to store, and let it sent in request as per the asking of a request in request header?

I hope you would have got what i mean to say here, for example
suppose i want to open http://www.example.com
and now that above url faces lot of redirects probably 5-6 and then ends up on http://www.test.com

now in between it stores some cookies in clients computer and then it fetches them also. Since i don't know which cookie it gonna store, I must put this responsibility to PHP itself to store and send the requested cookies in request headers.

Also i want to send the referrer also in request header, and it must be the last page that or request sent to the server, no matter whether it's in betwen redirects or to the final page.

In short i mean to create the complete emulation of browser for this URL.

Problem Using Curl On Asp With Cookie

Similar Tutorials

Hi, I'd stumbled upon a problem around doing curl on an asp website which use cookie. I use username n session id to determine the cookie file, on a case when a second browser open up it should have different session id, hence it may create new cookies instead of using the active previously-made cookie file, please do correct me if I'm wrong. So question is....how to detect a user is logged or not in such situation ? Or perhaps how is the proper way to determine a cookie file in such situation ? Thanks in advance,
