PHP - Session Variable Not Working And Register_globals Question
hi guys.
i am trying to set a variable to the session global variable. I've initialized the session with session_start(); at the very beginning of my website, and then i try finding if a session variable has been set like so if(isset($_SESSION['user'])) { print 'user is logged in'; } but this works in reverse. i have not set any session variables, but asking if it is set, results in an affirmative answer. so i am thinking this is because of register_globals. because i went to read about register_globals, and it says that if register_globals is turned off, i cannot use any other varibale except members of the session array. i dont know what that is yet, but a question befo in the php manual it says register_globals is deprecated, and it appears i need to enable it to set other variables as session variables besides it's associative array. if this is true, how to enable register_globals and allow other variables to be used as session variables? Similar TutorialsHello everyone, I can get Test 2 to successfully operate the if statement using a variable variable. But when I try the same method using a session variable (Test 1) the if statement is not executed. Please could you tell me why the if statement in Test 1 is not being executed? Code: [Select] <?php # TEST 1 $_SESSION[test_variable] = "abcd"; $session_variable_name = "_SESSION[test_variable]"; if ($$session_variable_name == "abcd") { echo "<br>line 373, abcd<br>"; } # TEST 2 $test_variable = "efgh"; $test_variable_name = "test_variable"; if ($$test_variable_name == "efgh") { echo "<br>line 379, efgh<br>"; } ?> Many thanks, Stu My login script stores the user's login name as $_SESSION[ 'name'] on login. For some unapparent reason, i'm getting errors stating that $user and $priv are undefined variables, though I've attempted to define $user as being equal to $_SESSION['name'], using $user to look up the the user's privilege level (stored as the su column ) in the SQL table, and then where the result of the sql query is $priv which is then evaluated in an if statement. I can't seem to figure out why this might not be working. The code I'm using:
<?php
session_start();
function verify() {
//verify that the user is logged in via the login page. Session_start has already been called.
if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])) {
header('Location: /index.html');
exit;
}
//if user is logged in, we then lookup necessary privleges. $_SESSION['name'] was written with the login name upon login. Privleges // are written in db as a single-digit integer of of 0 for users, 1 for administrators, and 2 for special users.
$user === $_SESSION['name'];
//Connect to Databse
$link = mysqli_connect("127.0.0.1", "database user", "password", "database");
if (!$link) {
echo "Error: Unable to connect to MySQL." . PHP_EOL;
echo "Debugging errno: " . mysqli_connect_errno() . PHP_EOL;
echo "Debugging error: " . mysqli_connect_error() . PHP_EOL;
exit;
}
//SQL Statement to lookup privlege information.
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT su FROM accounts WHERE username = $user", MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT)) {
//LOOP TO CYCLE THROUGH SQL RESULTS AND STORE Privlege information as vairable $priv.
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$priv === $row["su"];
}
}
// close SQL connection.
mysqli_close($link);
// Verify privleges and take action. Only a privlege of "1" is allowed to view this page. A privlege of "2" indicates special
//accounts used in other scripts that have certain indermediate additional functions, but are not trusted administrators.
if ($priv !== 1) {
echo $_SESSION['name'];
echo "you have privlege level of $priv";
echo "<br>";
echo 'Your account does not have the privleges necessary to view this page';
exit;
}
}
verify();
?>
When I turn register_global is turned off (register_argc_argv is also set to off), this script won't work. How can I have register_globals turned off and make this work for me. Any help is highly appreciated. <?php $bd_me = mysql_bd_meect("localhost","db_me","pw_me"); mysql_select_db("db_me"); $query =sprintf("SELECT * FROM db WHERE unamename = '%s' AND stus = 'Banned'", mysql_real_escape_string($uname)); $query_new = mysql_query($query); if(mysql_num_rows($query_new)) { $login = "Sorry."; echo($login); } else { $result=sprintf("SELECT * FROM db WHERE unamename = '%s' AND password ='%s'", mysql_real_escape_string($uname), mysql_real_escape_string($password)); $resultf = mysql_query($result); if(mysql_num_rows ($resultf) == 0) { $login = "Failed."; echo($login); } else { $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); $uname=$row['uname']; $password=$row['password']; $login = "$uname=" . $uname . "$password=" . $password . "Successful."; echo($login); } } ?> Is there any other settings that needs to be changed in the php.ini to make this code work while register_globals is turned off? I have script that I need register_globals = On right now I have to put php.ini into root of my webpage on webhost. but that means it turn on register_globals = On for whole site. I have tried just putting php.ini into subdomain but does not work, well script does not work. I have tried to put AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5s .php into the .htaccess in subdomain but that does not work either, script stop working. I can not get script to work if php.ini is in root of webpage webhost. What I'm I doing wrong, thanks Hi I am using very simple code. Here it is Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); $user = "guest"; $uid = "1"; echo $_SESSION['user']."<br />"; echo $_SESSION['uid']; ?> it displays this error Code: [Select] Notice: Undefined index: user in C:\wamp\www\DealDash\index.php on line 5 Notice: Undefined index: uid in C:\wamp\www\DealDash\index.php on line 6 how can I solve this problem? Help please hi all , i am working on a script which is oop driven and i m not much familiar with it, i appericiate if someone can help me to solve this problem , so basicaly current script is only setting one session variable to true if user login $_SESSION['is_successful_login'] , here is my code <?php include('files/db.php'); class ajaxLoginModule { private $timeout = null; private $target_element = null; private $wait_text = null; private $form_element = null; private $wait_element = null; private $notify_element = null; function __construct() { include ('config.php'); $msql = new Db; $msql->connect(); $this->is_login(); } function get_config() { $this->set_ajax_config(); } function set_ajax_config() { $this->timeout = AJAX_TIMEOUT; $this->target_element = AJAX_TARGET_ELEMENT; $this->wait_text = AJAX_WAIT_TEXT; $this->wait_element = AJAX_WAIT_ELEMENT; $this->notify_element = AJAX_NOTIFY_ELEMENT; $this->form_element = AJAX_FORM_ELEMENT; } function initLogin($arg = array()) { $this->get_config(); $this->login_script(); } function initJquery() { return "<script type='text/javascript' src='files/jquery-1.3.2.min.js'></script>"; } function login_script() { include ('files/login_script.php'); } function is_login() { if(isset($_POST['username'])) { $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; $strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ".USERS_TABLE_NAME."

I've been working on this for days now, and I just can't find the solution. I just wondered whether someoen could perhaps have a look at this and let me know where I'm going wrong. Many thanks and regards Need help declaring some session variable guys. I have a login form where the member enters his 1. Pilot Callsign 2. Password I want to declare that Pilot Callsign as the session variable on authentication. Using that Pilot Callsign session variable, I will fetch data from the database relevant to his profile. I already have the whole login page coded along with the restricted access pages (not coded by me). Check this out 1. Page is coded like this and working PERFECTLY --- Code: [Select] <?php // *** Validate request to login to this site. if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); } $loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; if (isset($_GET['accesscheck'])) { $_SESSION['PrevUrl'] = $_GET['accesscheck']; } if (isset($_POST['pilot_callsign'])) { $loginUsername=$_POST['pilot_callsign']; $password=$_POST['password']; mysql_select_db($database_brn_system, $brn_system); $LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT pilot_callsign, password, staff_level, firstname FROM pilots WHERE activated = 1 AND pilot_callsign=%s AND password=%s", GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text")); $LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $brn_system) or die(mysql_error()); $loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS); if ($loginFoundUser) { $loginStrGroup = mysql_result($LoginRS,0,'staff_level'); if (PHP_VERSION >= 5.1) {session_regenerate_id(true);} else {session_regenerate_id();} //declare two session variables and assign them $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername; $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup; ?> --- 2. As you can see, there already is a session variable declared for Pilot Callsign But on the next page "Restricted Access Page", when I try to call this same Session Variable, it doesn't work. I tried doing this <?php echo $_SESSION['MM_Username'] ?> Moreover, I even tried to fetch data from the table like this - SELECT * FROM pilots WHERE pilot_callsign=$_SESSION['MM_Username'] Doesn't work Hi all, Just moving my old website to a new server and I can't turn register_globals off.

Use the back button. If you think this message is incorrect, contact the webmaster."; } ?> I know its not carrying because the echo in login.php is not returning anything and the script cant execute the header function because it has nowhere to go! Ive narrowed it down to the session var not carrying. I'm using Session variables for the first time on a site I'm developing. I had it working fine while I was doing some admin and testing in subfolders. But the problem is I'm losing the session variables when I load the page from www.example.com, but it works from www.example.com/index.php. I would be happy to post some code if needed. Currently I am adding the concept of "entitlements" to my website. In the past, my "article.php" script would simply look to the URL for which article was being requested and then load it. However now that I am also adding the concept of "premium content" for "paid members", I need a way to control who sees what. What I am wondering is - from a security standpoint - how much information I should load into the $_SESSION variable. For instance, right now when a user logs in, I think I just store the "memberID" and "FirstName" and possibly "Username". It would be more efficient when a Member logs in to also retrieve their "Membership Plan" and store that in the $_SESSION variable, so that as they browse my website, each page can simply grab $_SESSION['MembershipPlan'] and run that through a function that I need to build and then determine if the user gets to access said page. However, maybe it would be more secure to have it so when a user lands on page XYZ, I would look at their "memberID" and query the database to get their "MembershipPlan"? Any thoughts on each approach? Again, my main concern is *security*, but I also suppose this plays into "performance".
Hello i have problem in set session variables in .htaccess file. i have tried some codes which are belows but i did not effect in php info file. <IfModule mod_php5.c> php_value session.gc_maxlifetime 86400 php_value session.cache_expire 86400 </IfModule> please let me know if any one have solutions fot this Hey guys, been awhile since I have been here, but I hit a little issue in reading session data reliably every time. What I am doing is reading the variables and values from a rarurlencoded string. Then putting that into a session array to populate parts of a form and fill in some hidden fields. After the form posts every now and then, about 1 in 50 or so attempts, I have one (always the same one) that just vanishes. Anyone ever experience anything like this? Question about variable variables and using session variables for them. O.K. So if I have: $foo = 3; $_SESSION['bar'] = "foo"; $$_SESSION['bar'] should equal the value of $foo, however I can't get it to work. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong..... is it formatting??? Thanks, Thomas I am trying to define a session variable where I can save it and use it as the user surfs the site. I need the variable saved as $amano so I can use it in my select from/where statement and to echo within a table. This is a test trying to capture and define the variable and works, but I can't get the variable $amano into the session. If I am then I don't know how to display it. <?php> session_start(); $id = $_POST['amano']; $_SESSION['amano'] = '$amano'; echo "Pageviews = ". $_SESSION['amano']; // My effort to see what is happening. echo "<br />"; echo "AMA # = ". $_POST['amano']; // I have it just like I want it here. echo "<br />"; echo "Sessions AMA # = ".$_SESSION['amano']; ?> The $_SESSION['record_to_chage'] variable is set- I know this as I can echo it out. $openedfile = file("myfile.txt"); sort($openedfile); // foreach($openedfile as $key => $newpick) { echo "<a href=\"/editpage.php?request=$_SESSION['record_to_chgange']&newcat=$newpick\" target=\"_parent\">$newpick</a>"; echo "<br>"; } The Resulting error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in For the life of me I can not figure where I am going wrong. Going to get coffee and some fresh eyes. Cheers |
