Can this be done best in php? Cheers, visitor Hi there, New to the forum... thank you in advance for any help! I created a login system using a tutorial found online. Everything works perfectly.. but now the client wants "Hello [First Name]" displayed after logging in. I've tried about 12 different tutorials at this point and can't seem to tweak them enough to work with my code. A lot of the tutorials have session_start(); at the top of their protected (welcome.php) page. But mine seems to be held in a variable in another script and the top of my welcome.php looks like this: Code: [Select] <?PHP require_once("./include/membersite_config.php"); if(!$fgmembersite->CheckLogin()) { $fgmembersite->RedirectToURL("login.php"); exit; } ?> This is what I have on my welcome page as well but I don't know how to make this all come together and work.. Code: [Select] Hello <?php echo $_SESSION['name']; ?> I'm using mySQL 5.0, and php 5.2. Will anyone shed light on this for me? I'll provide any other info you may need.. Thank you Hello all, my first post after joining this very informative site, unfortunatly I was unable to find the answer to my simple yet frastrating dilemma. I am in the process of building a website that will enable users to log-in through a dedicated loginU.php page, I have all of this working but I would like to display an error message on this page saying if the user has entered a wrong username/password, I have the message displaying on a blank white page, but I would like it to be displayed within the container I have created. the validation code is contained within a different login.php file. At the moment I am using an iframe to display the messages, which I know is not the right way to do it, so am asking for a better way to do it. here is what I have so far: loginU.php Code: [Select] <div id = "div-Login"> <form action="login.php" method="POST" target="loginerror"> <center><h2>Login Here</h2> <p> Username: <input type="text" name="username"><p> Password: <input type="password" name="password"><p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login"> </center> <a href="register.html"><pre>need to register? Click Here!</pre></a> </form> <iframe name="loginerror" style="border: 0px; width: 200px; height: 100px; overflow: hidden;" src="login.php"></iframe> </div> login.php Code: [Select] if ($username==$dbusername&&$enc_password==$dbpassword) //if the username & encrpyted password matches the records in the database { if($admin !=0) //if the admin flag is true { $_SESSION['level']='ADMIN';//admin is logging in header ("Location: admin.php"); //the user is an admin, direct to admin page } else header ("Location: index.php"); //user is a customer, direct user to index page $_SESSION['username']=$dbusername; //set the session name to the database record username. } else //$nopass='TRUE'; //header ("location: loginU.php"); echo "Incorrect Password, Please try again"; // if incorrect password } else die ("That username doesn't exist"); // if user doesn't exist } else die ("Please enter a username and password"); //if either field is empty ?> Basically, All I want to do is save a .txt (doesn't have to be .txt) to my FTP and PHP simple echos it. The .txt is where a message is stored. But when I write the message my self like this: Hello This is a message. - And then upload it to my FTP, PHP echos it like this "HelloThis is a message". Is there anyway for PHP to notice the 'white space'? --OR-- If you know of a better way to make a message system, then also let me know Thanks, Ollie! Code: [Select] <?php ob_start(); session_start(); require_once ("functions.php"); $returnurl = urlencode(isset($_GET["returnurl"])?$_GET["returnurl"]:""); if($returnurl == "") $returnurl = urlencode(isset($_POST["returnurl"])?$_POST["returnurl"]:""); $do = isset($_GET["do"])?$_GET["do"]:""; $do = strtolower($do); switch($do) { case "": if (checkLoggedin()) {include("usernav.php");?> <h3>User Logged In</h3> <p>This is the members only area.</p> <?php } else {?> <a name="User Panel"></a> <h1>User Panel</h1> <h3>User Login</h3> <form name="login" action="login.php?do=login" method="POST" onsubmit="return aValidator();"> <input type="hidden" name="returnurl" value="<?$returnurl?>"> <table cellPadding=3 width=225 border=1> <tr> <td colSpan=2> <center> <p><b>Members-Only Area!</b></font></p> </center></td></tr> <tr> <td align=center width=70>Username:</td> <td><input type="text" name="username"></td></tr> <tr> <td align=center width=70>Password:</td> <td><input type="password" name="password"></font></td></tr> <tr> <td align=middle colspan=2> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login"></td></tr> <td align=middle colSpan=2> <input type="checkbox" name="remme" value="on"> Remember me for the next time I visit</td> </form></table></td> <?php } break; case "login": $username = isset($_POST["username"])?$_POST["username"]:""; $password = isset($_POST["password"])?$_POST["password"]:""; if ($username=="" or $password=="" ) { echo "<h1>Username or password is blank</h1>";//this does not show when the input(s) are blank clearsessionscookies(); header("location: index.php?returnurl=$returnurl"); } else { if(confirmuser($username,$password)) { createsessions($username,$password); if ($returnurl<>"") header("location: $returnurl"); else { header("Location: index.php"); } } else { echo "<h1>Invalid Username and/Or password</h1>";//this message does not show when the user login invalid clearsessionscookies(); header("location: index.php?returnurl=$returnurl"); } } break; case "logout": clearsessionscookies(); header("location: index.php"); break; } ?> What maybe the case, could anyone help me with this? Thanks Ted. Hi guys, It's my first post here, not looking to leech, I'm simply here to learn and develop my skills and any contributes will be greatly appreciated! Anyways I have made a simple login script, however I would like to make it more secure. However before that, can you please explain to me as to why it is not secure in the first place? A basic explanation so I can understand would be great. Then after that, could you please give help as to how I would make this login code more secure? Thank you very much Code: [Select] <?php $rowsfound=false; if (isset($_GET['frmStudentId'])) { // functions to make performQuery() work correctly require_once("dbfunctions.inc.php"); $query = "SELECT dbStudentId, dbStudentName " . " FROM student " . " WHERE dbStudentId = '".$_GET['frmStudentId']."'" . " AND dbPassword = '".$_GET['frmPassword']."'"; $result = performQuery($query); if(count($result) > 0) { $rowsfound=true; // allow login } } // code continues by generating appropriate response ...

What I want to create is really complicated. Well I have a login system that works with post on an external website. I have my own website, but they do not give me access to the database for security reasons, therefore I have to use their login system to verify my users. What their website does is that it has a post, with username and password. The POST website is lets say "https://www.example.com/login". If login is achieved (i.e. username and password are correct), it will redirect me to "https://www.example.com/login/success" else it will redirect me to "https://www.example.com/login/retry". So I want a PHP script that will do that post, and then according to the redirected website address it will return me TRUE for success, FALSE for not successful login. Any idea?? Thanks Okay so my news script is set to view only 10 pieces of news. But I want it so that it starts a new page once I have more than 10 pieces of news. Code: [Select] <?php require("functions.php"); include("dbconnect.php"); session_start(); head1(); body1(); new_temp(); sotw(); navbar(); $start = 0; $display = 10; $query = "SELECT * FROM news ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $start, $display"; $result = mysql_query( $query ); if ($result) { while( $row = @mysql_fetch_array( $result, MYSQL_ASSOC ) ) { news_box( $row['news'], $row['title'], $row['user'], $row['date'], $row['id'] ); } mysql_free_result($result); } else { news_box( 'Could not retrieve news entries!', 'Error', 'Error', 'Error'); } footer(); mysql_close($link); ?> I tried a few things but they failed....miserably.

Hey Guys, I have followed a tutorial and got a SMS text message script working. Although what i would like to do now is allow a registered user to add another user via a form. This form will contain the users mobile number, email, who its from, and a textarea for the message to send to them in the text message. *** It also stores it into a database. But dont worry about that. I have run into a problem, when i type in a mobile number and an email address and then press send. It doesnt seem to store the email address in the $vars echo (message). **It does echo in the email bit but i wont it to show in the message bit. ** Here is a screenshot. right ive setup my own messaging feature on my website but it still allowes me to message myself if tried <? }else{ if($to == username){ ?> the whole code so you can get a better understanding <?php session_start(); include_once "includes/db_connect.php"; include_once "includes/functions.php"; logincheck(); $username=$_SESSION['username']; $fetch=mysql_fetch_object(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username'")); if ($fetch->texts < '1'){ echo "<font color=red>You don't have No Texts Left</font><br>"; }elseif($fetch->texts >= '1'){ ?> <body onLoad="goaway();"><? $towho=$_GET['fromper']; $oldmsg=$_GET['oldmsg']; $text=$_POST['text']; $subject=$_POST['subject']; $fsubject=$_GET['fsubject']; $info=mysql_fetch_object(mysql_query("SELECT rank FROM users WHERE username='$username'")); $goody = mysql_query("SELECT `inbox`, `date`, `from` FROM `messages` WHERE `id`='$rep'"); while($success = mysql_fetch_row($goody)){ $ini = $success[0]; $dateon = $success[1]; $fromper = $success[2]; } if(strip_tags($_POST['Send'])){ $text=strip_tags(addslashes($text)); $to = strip_tags(addslashes($_POST['to'])); $rep = $_GET['rep']; if((!$to)){ ?> <p class="style4">Please enter a username!</p> <span class="style4"> <? }else{ if(!$text){?> </span> <p class="style4">You cannot send a blank message!</p> <span class="style4"> <? }else{ if($to == username){ ?> </span> <p class="style4">You cannot send a message to yourself!</p> <span class="style4"> <? }else{ $sql_username_check = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username='$to'"); $username_check = mysql_num_rows($sql_username_check); if ($username_check == 0){ ?> </span> <p class="style4">Invalid Username!</p> <span class="style4"> <? }else{ $date = gmdate('Y-m-d H:i:s'); $sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `inbox` (`id`, `to`, `from`, `message`, `date`, `read`, `subject`) VALUES ('', '$to', '$username', '$text', '$date', '0', '$subject');") or die (mysql_error()); $sqll = mysql_query("UPDATE users SET texts = texts-1 WHERE username='$username'"); if(!$sql){ ?> </span> <p class="style4">There has been an error please contact an Admin !</p> <span class="style1"> <? }else{ echo "<table width=300 border=1 align=center cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 bordercolor=#003300 class=thinline2> <tr> <td height=20 align=center bgcolor=#74CE59 scope=col><span class=style1>Your Message As Been Sent </span></td> </tr> </table>"; }}}}}} ?> Let me know if i am understanding this correctly Below is the form code i put in my HTML editor followed by the php code that i right out as a text doc. then save as .php and upload to the appropriate location? if the above is correct what do i name the php file scripts/send_sms.php? when i do it this way i get this error message Not Found The requested URL /scripts/sms_error.php was not found on this server.
