PHP - Session Values
I'm working on a small project that requires a user login function. There's only going to be about 10 members in the database. I've followed a tutorial of how to make a login system. I've never really worked with sessions before, but I did some research and get the general concept of them.
What I want to do is store the user's username in a session when they log in, so I can run queries and such later specific to that user. How would I do that? I was able to manually set a session, but I need to set the session equal to what their username is on login. I've tried doing that below, but I don't think it's working. Either that, or I'm not calling the session correctly in the other page where I want to display their username. Here's the code for the page that checks if the login is correct: Code: [Select] // username and password sent from form $myusername=$_POST['myusername']; $mypassword=$_POST['mypassword']; $encrypted_mypassword=md5($mypassword); $sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username='$myusername' and password='$encrypted_mypassword'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); // To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection) $myusername = stripslashes($myusername); $mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword); $myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername); $mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string($mypassword); // Mysql_num_row is counting table row $count=mysql_num_rows($result); // If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row if($count==1){ // Register $myusername, $mypassword and redirect to file "login_success.php" $_SESSION['myusername'] = $myusername; $_SESSION['password'] = $encrypted_mypassword; header("location:login_success.php"); } else { echo "Wrong Username or Password"; } ?> Thanks in advance for any replies Similar Tutorials
Table Issue - Multiple Location Values For User Pushes Values Out Of Row Instead Of Wrapping In Cell
I am under developing PHP add to cart without DB, so that i am using SESSION, actually get data from fetch_data.php data to my_cart.php using the POST method, successfully retun the values, After receiving the post data how can i convert to display like a table. workout: fetch_data.php return values. https://snag.gy/IASCMZ.jpg & values received https://snag.gy/ojWxHe.jpg Here is my my_cart.php : // FYI -> Here i am using only two fields : voice_sku & voice_name <table width="100%" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0"> <thead> <tr> <th>Voice Sku</th> <th>Voice Name</th> <th>Remove</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <?php session_start(); $voice_sku = ''; $voice_name = ''; if(isset($_POST['voice_sku'])&& isset($_POST['voice_name'])) { // print_r($_POST); // die(); $voice_sku = $_POST['voice_sku']; $voice_name = $_POST['voice_name']; $_SESSION['voice_sku'] = $voice_sku; $_SESSION['voice_name'] = $voice_name; } var_dump($_SESSION); ?> <tr> <td colspan="5"> <span style="float:right;text-align: right;"> <!-- --> </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="5"> <a href="index.php" class="button">Add More Items</a> <button type="submit">Update</button> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
I have a script that was written and tested on another server, but now when I transferred it to the live server, session values are not being passed. I made a couple test pages to check and confirmed that the only issue is the session variables. Here is the test I performed. Please tell me what I'm missing: page1.php <? session_start(); $_SESSION['var1'] = 'testing'; print_r($_SESSION); ?> Returns: Array ( [var1] => testing ) page2.php <? session_start(); print_r($_SESSION); ?> Returns: Array () I am building a website that uses session variables extensively. The site is getting a little complicated, and I am starting to lose track of which session variables are assigned, and what their values are. Is there some way where I can create a piece of code that will display all of the existing session variables and their values? I am pretty new to php and trying to teach myself. I can't get the values from this form to write to my flat file called orders.txt: browse_index.php <?php include("includes/menu_members.php") ?> <div id="content"> <h1>SHOPPING CART</h1> <a href="browse_index.php">CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE SHOPPING</a> <?php echo ' <table border="0"> <tr> <td><form id="f2" method="post"name="f2"><input type="submit" action="order_summary.php" name="submit2" value="submit order"></td> '; if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $itemname = $_POST['h1']; //echo $_SESSION['itemname'][$itemname]; unset($_SESSION['itemqty'][$itemname]); unset($_SESSION['itemprice'][$itemname]); unset($_SESSION['itemname'][$itemname]); } echo "<br/><br/>"; echo "<table border='8' bgcolor='#efefef'>"; echo "<tr><th>Name</th><th>Quantity</th><th>Price</th><th>Subtotal</th></tr>"; foreach($_SESSION['itemname'] as $key=>$value) { echo '<tr><td><b>'.$_SESSION['itemname'][$key].'</b></td> <td>'.$_SESSION['itemqty'][$key].'</td> <td>$'.$_SESSION['itemprice'][$key].'</td> <td name="subtotal">$'.($_SESSION['itemqty'][$key] * $_SESSION['itemprice'][$key]).'</td> <td><form id="f1" method="post" name="f1"><input type="submit" name="submit" value = "delete"><input type="hidden" name="h1" value='.$key.'></td></tr>' ; } ?> order_summary.php: <?php session_start (); $date = date ("H:i jS F"); $outputstring = $date."/t" .$_POST['h1']. ":" .$_SESSION['itemqty'][$key]. ":" .$_SESSION['subtotal'][$key]. ":" ."\n"; $fp = fopen("orders.txt","a"); fwrite($fp, $outputstring); fclose($fp); ?> Can someone direct me where I am going wrong??? Hi there, I am working on a PHP web form and I have a very simple situation I guess, I have a variable named: $MyVal When I do print_r($MyVal); To see whats inside, I get: SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => 8.23 ) Now I am assigning this variable into a session variable so that I can do calculations with it. So I assign: $_SESSION['MySesVal'] = $MyVal; But after assigning to session variable, when I do my calculations: $finalValue = $_SESSION['MySesVal'] * 4; I get 0. So is it because the actual $MyVal variable has some XML stuff as: SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => 8.23 ) So what is the right way to properly assign $MyVal variable to a session variable to do calculations. Please reply. All comments and feedbacks are always welcome. Thank you! Hi I am having issues with the following code. I cannot get the table to produce a subtotal multiplying the value of 'ITEMQTY' which is a text field in the form in which the user enters by the 'ITEMPRICE' field which value is located in a text document. <h1>SHOPPING CART</h1><img src="images/cart.png" alt="Cart" width="100" height="100"/> <a href="browse_index.php">CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE SHOPPING</a> <?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $itemname = $_POST['h1']; //echo $_SESSION['itemname'][$itemname]; unset($_SESSION['itemqty'][$itemname]); unset($_SESSION['itemprice'][$itemname]); unset($_SESSION['itemname'][$itemname]); } echo "<br/><br/>"; echo "<table border='8' cellpadding='10' >"; echo "<tr><th>Name</th><th>Quantity</th><th>Price</th><th>Subtotal</th></tr>"; foreach($_SESSION['itemname'] as $key => $value) $subtotal = ($_SESSION['itemprice']*($_SESSION['itemqty']; { echo '<tr> <td>'.$_SESSION['itemname'][$key].'</td> <td><input type="text" name="t1" value='.$_SESSION['itemqty'][$key].'></td> <td>'.$_SESSION['itemprice'][$key].'</td> <td>'.$_SESSION['h2'][$key].'</td> <td><form id="f1" method="post" name="f1"><input type="submit" name="submit" value = "delete"><input type="hidden" name="h1" value='.$key.'></td> </tr> <tr><form id="t1" method="post" action="summary.php" name="t1"><input type="submit" name="order" value="SUBMIT ORDER"></tr>'; } echo "</table>"; ?> It's been a while since I've needed to whip anything substantial up from scratch, so my scripting is a little (lot) fast and loose (weird/inefficient) here. I'm trying to mock up a script that's essentially a quiz/survey. There are a handful of topics, each with a few screens of yes/no questions. At the end, it returns a list of recommendations based on the answers gathered. The script is posting back to itself. Using print_r ($_SESSION), it seems like all of the post values for the first screen of questions are being assigned to the session array as expected. When the second screen of questions is answered, their values are assigned as well, but the values for the first set go away completely. This continues through subsequent screens, with the values from the previous screen present and all others before missing. I'd really appreciate a look at my code to see if you tell me the cause or error(s).

I have tried to replace the header (Location: 'admin.php') with this: echo "<script>document.location.href='admin.php'</script>"; echo "<script>'Content-type: application/octet-stream'</script>"; I've been trying to read up on solutions but haven't been able to get it sorted.

I've been advised to use ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); but I am not sure how to implement this. Any advice is greatly appreciated! I'm making a simple login system with MySQL and PHP (very simple, I'm just starting with PHP). The MySQL portion is done, but I need to ensure only people who are logged in can see certain content. To check if people are logged in, my website checks that they have the $_SESSION['user'] variable set. If it is set, then it lets them continue through the website, if not, it tells them to login. Is that enough security, or can people simply inject a session cookie into their browser to spoof that they are logged in? My idea was to generate a session key cookie when they login (just a random string of letters and numbers) and store that in the database, then on every page, check to make sure their session key is the same thing that's in the database. Is this necessary? It seems expensive. hi everyone. i'm wondering what the best way is to create a session variable and pass it to an iframe. i need to do something along these lines, but it doesn't seem to pass the ID. Any hints on how i should accomplish this? Code: [Select] session_start(); $_SESSION['ID']=$_GET['ID']; // id from previous page $ID=session_id(); <iframe src="iframepage.php?ID=<?php echo $ID; ?>" style="width:680px; height:200px;" noresize="noresize" frameborder="0" border="0" scrolling="Yes" allowtransparency="true" /> </iframe> Evening! I've been iffing and ahhing over this and well im not too sure, hence the post. Code: [Select] // Redirects if there is no session id selected and echos the error on the previous page if(!isset($_GET['get']) || ($_GET['getget'])){ header("Location: #.php?error"); } So it should simply check if get is set if it isnt then see if getget is set? If not redirect and show the error. Now ive tried it and even when get/getget is set it still redirects, probably something silly. Care to share anyone? Harry. Just curious how other people feel about this. I am working on an application where a lot of info is pulled from MySQL and needed on multiple pages.
Would it make more sense to...
1. Pull all data ONCE and store it in SESSION variables to use on other pages
2. Pull the data from the database on each new page that needs it
I assume the preferred method is #1, but maybe there is some downside to using SESSION variables "too much"?
Side question that's kind of related: As far as URLs, is it preferable to have data stored in them (i.e. domain.com/somepage.php?somedata=something&otherdata=thisdata) or use SESSION variables to store that data so the URLs can stay general/clean (i.e. domain.com/somepage.php)?
Both are probably loaded questions but any possible insight would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Thank You Edited February 8, 2020 by karthicbabuHi, My company has 240+ locations and as such some users (general managers) cover multiple sites. When I run a query to pull user information, when the user has multiple sites to his or her name, its adds the second / third sites to the next columns, rather than wrapping it inside the same table cell. It also works the opposite way, if a piece of data is missing in the database and is blank, its pull the following columns in. Both cases mess up the table and formatting. I'm extremely new to any kind of programming and maybe this isn't the forum for this question but figured I'd give it a chance since I'm stuck. The HTML/PHP code is below: <table id="datatables-column-search-select-inputs" class="table table-striped" style="width:100%"> <thead> <tr> <th>ID</th> <th>FirstName</th> <th>LastName</th> <th>Username</th> <th>Phone #</th> <th>Location</th> <th>Title</th> <th>Role</th> <th>Actions</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <?php //QUERY TO SELECT ALL USERS FROM DATABASE $query = "SELECT * FROM users"; $select_users = mysqli_query($connection,$query);
// SET VARIABLE TO ARRAY FROM QUERY while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($select_users)) { $user_id = $row['user_id']; $user_firstname = $row['user_firstname']; $user_lastname = $row['user_lastname']; $username = $row['username']; $user_phone = $row['user_phone']; $user_image = $row['user_image']; $user_title_id = $row['user_title_id']; $user_role_id = $row['user_role_id'];
// POPULATES DATA INTO THE TABLE echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>{$user_id}</td>"; echo "<td>{$user_firstname}</td>"; echo "<td>{$user_lastname}</td>"; echo "<td>{$username}</td>"; echo "<td>{$user_phone}</td>";
//PULL SITE STATUS BASED ON SITE STATUS ID $query = "SELECT * FROM sites WHERE site_manager_id = {$user_id} "; $select_site = mysqli_query($connection, $query); while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($select_site)) { $site_name = $row['site_name']; echo "<td>{$site_name}</td>"; } echo "<td>{$user_title_id}</td>"; echo "<td>{$user_role_id}</td>"; echo "<td class='table-action'> <a href='#'><i class='align-middle' data-feather='edit-2'></i></a> <a href='#'><i class='align-middle' data-feather='trash'></i></a> </td>"; //echo "<td><a href='users.php?source=edit_user&p_id={$user_id}'>Edit</a></td>"; echo "</tr>"; } ?>

Hi all, Just curious why this works: Code: [Select] while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){ $import="INSERT into $prodtblname ($csvheaders1) values('$data[0]','$data[1]','$data[2]','$data[3]','$data[4]','$data[5]','$data[6]')"; } And this does not: $headdata_1 = "'$data[0]','$data[1]','$data[2]','$data[3]','$data[4]','$data[5]','$data[6]'"; while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){ $import="INSERT into $prodtblname ($csvheaders1) values($headdata_1)"; }it puts $data[#'s] in the database fields instead of the actual data that '$data[0]','$data[1]'... relates to. I wrote a script to create the values in $headdata_1 based on the number of headers in $csvheaders1 but can't seem to get it working in the sql statement. Thanks Hi all, I'm a first time poster here and I would really appreciate some guidance with my latest php challenge! I've spent the entire day googling and reading and to be honest I think I'm really over my head and need the assistance of someone experienced to advise the best way to go! I have a multi dimensional array that looks like (see below); the array is created by CodeIgniter's database library (the rows returned from a select query) but I think this is a generic PHP question as opposed to having anything to do with CI because it related to working with arrays. I'm wondering how I might go about searching the array below for the key problem_id and a value equal to a variable which I would provide. Then, when it finds an array with a the matching key and variable, it outputs the other values in that part of the array too. For example, using the sample data below. How would you recommend that I search the array for all the arrays that have the key problem_id and the value 3 and then have it output the value of the key problem_update_date and the value of the key problem_update_text. Then keep searching to find the next occurrence? Thanks in advance, as above, I've been searching really hard for the answer and believe i'm over my head! Output of print_r($updates); CI_DB_mysql_result Object ( [conn_id] => Resource id #30 [result_id] => Resource id #35 [result_array] => Array ( ) [result_object] => Array ( ) [current_row] => 0 [num_rows] => 5 [row_data] => ) Output of print_r($updates->result_array()); Array ( [0] => Array ( [problem_update_id] => 1 [problem_id] => 3 [problem_update_date] => 2010-10-01 [problem_update_text] => Some details about a paricular issue [problem_update_active] => 1 ) [1] => Array ( [problem_update_id] => 4 [problem_id] => 3 [problem_update_date] => 2010-10-01 [problem_update_text] => Another update about the problem with an ID of 3 [problem_update_active] => 1 ) [2] => Array ( [problem_update_id] => 5 [problem_id] => 4 [problem_update_date] => 2010-10-12 [problem_update_text] => An update about the problem with an ID of four [problem_update_active] => 1 ) [3] => Array ( [problem_update_id] => 6 [problem_id] => 4 [problem_update_date] => 2010-10-12 [problem_update_text] => An update about the problem with an ID of 6 [problem_update_active] => 1 ) [4] => Array ( [problem_update_id] => 7 [problem_id] => 3 [problem_update_date] => 2010-10-12 [problem_update_text] => Some new update about the problem with the ID of 3 [problem_update_active] => 1 ) ) Hi People, I am on a deadline and finding that my code does not work in php5 and I have to change it to work. Just wonder if anyone can spot the obvious within my code. This all worked in php4 but now I have to rewrite it. Basically its a little order system. <? include("inc/connect.php"); // Continue start session. // We need to first check to see if an item with the SID and cat and product_code exists in the database, // if it does then we need to update that item, if not then we need to add the item // clean out any malicious data foreach ($_REQUEST as $k => $v) { $_REQUEST[$k] = (get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? strip_tags($v) : strip_tags(addslashes($v))); } session_start(); { $sql = "SELECT * FROM orders WHERE sid = '$PHPSESSID' AND product_id = '$product_id' "; $sql_result = mysql_query($sql); if (mysql_num_rows($sql_result) ==0) { # setup SQL statement $SQL = " INSERT INTO orders (sid,product_id,product_title,qty,standard_price,deluxe_price) VALUES ('$PHPSESSID','$product_id','$product_title','$qty','$standard_price','$deluxe_price')"; #execute SQL statement $result = mysql_db_query( azflowers,"$SQL",$connection ); # check for error if (!$result) { echo("ERROR: " . mysql_error() .
