PHP - A Problem With $_session Closing Unexpectedly
Hi there
I have been working on a login PHP script and had it working until I made so change late at night and forgot to back it up. The script uses PHP and Javascript as well as a Mysql database. The problem I am having is with the session closing unexpectedly when I go to enter the profile (or any other button placed after the login). It is rather hard to explain so here is the code [syntax=php]<?php //login php script include_once 'rnfunctions.php'; $theaction='index14.php'; function destroySession() { $_SESSION=array(); if ((session_id() != '') || isset($_COOKIE[session_name()])){ setcookie(session_name(),'', time()-2592000,'/'); session_destroy(); } } function startsessions($user,$pass,$theaction) { session_start(); session_name($user); $_SESSION['user'] = $user; $_SESSION['pass'] = $pass; $theuser =($_SESSION['user']); echo "You are now logged in as $theuser"; } function loggedin($theaction) { echo <<<_END <table> <tr> <td> <form name="myform" method='post' action='$theaction'> <input type='hidden' name='logout'value='logout' /> <a href="#" onMouseDown="submitform(0);">logout</a> | </form> </td> <td> <form name="myform2" method='post' action='$theaction'> <input type='hidden' name='profile'value='profile' /> <a href="#" onMouseDown="submitform(2);">profile</a> | </form> </td> <td> <form name="myform3" method='post' action='$theaction'> <input type='hidden' name='unregister'value='unregister' /> <a href="#" onMouseDown="submitform(3);">unregister</a> </form> </td> </tr> </table> _END;

It calls a javascript function to submit the form. The javascript function is as follows Code: [Select] function submitform(num) { if (num == 2) { document.myform2.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 3) { document.myform3.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 4) { document.myform4.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 5) { document.myform5.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 6) { document.myform6.submit(); return 1; } else { document.myform.submit(); return 1; } }I can log in though when I go to enter the profile the $_SESSION['user'] is gone and I am logged out. I just can't seem to track down the problem and it is frustrating the heck out of me. If anyone has any ideas PLEASE help! Similar Tutorials
First let me explain my code. This is later included in project_status.php] . In project_status.php] , I have included another file project_status_app.php which contains a HTML form.
<?php include 'inc_fn_header_and_menu.php'; function includeFile($file,$variable) { $var = $variable; include($file); } if (isset($_GET['id']) && $_GET['id']!="") { $pid = $_GET['id']; $_SESSION['pidForApproval'] = $_GET['id']; $query = 'SELECT * FROM `profile` WHERE pid ='.'\''.$pid.'\''; $result=mysqli_query($db,$queryToRetrievePP) or die("There are no records to display ... \n" . mysqli_error()); foreach ($result as $row) { $status = $row['status']; } } ...........some PHP and HTML code....... <div id="customerPurchaseApprovalForm"> <?php echo '<p>APPROVAL FOR CUSTOMER PURCHASE</p>'; $discountApprovalStatus = "Granted"; if ($discountApprovalStatus == "Granted") { includeFile("project_status_app.php",$highestannualvalue); } else { //......... } In project_status_app.php I am attempting to retrieve pidForApproval from the $_SESSION array. <?php // put your code here UPDATE `pp` SET `customer_purchase_remarks` = 'hahaha' WHERE `pp`.`id` = 207; if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { include '../../inc/fastlogin.php'; $sql = "UPDATE pp SET customer_purchase_remarks ='{$_POST['remarkstxt']}' WHERE pp.pid='{$_SESSION['pidForApproval']}'"; $result = mysqli_query ( $fastdb, $sql ) ; if (mysqli_affected_rows($fastdb) != 1) { $_SESSION['err_cpa_rmks'] = "<p>Error while updating WHERE id='{$_SESSION['pidForApproval']}'</p>"; //echo "<p>Error while updating WHERE id='{$_POST['pidForApproval']}'</p>".mysqli_error($fastdb); } else { $_SESSION['suc_cpa_rmks'] = "<p>Records was updated successfully.</p>"; //echo "Records was updated successfully."; } header ("location: project_status.php?id="$_SESSION['pidForApproval']); exit(); } ?> When I load project_status.php, project_status_app.php is supposed to display the form. Once the user fills in the form the and the submit button has been pressed, the UPDATE statement is supposed to run and then it is supposed to navigate back to project_status.php?id=FA142. But the update is failing and the when the project_status.php is loaded back, the url looks like this http://localhost/fast/project_status.php?id= . The id is empty. It is supposed to be something like this http://localhost/fast/project_status.php?id=FA142. With the id being populated at the header ("location: project_status.php?id=".$_SESSION['pidForApproval']);
Missing some information. Hiya, I'm quite new to php. My script was working fine till I transferred to a new host. The login system doesn't seem to register the $_SESSION 'userid' variable, so the proper page won't load because it thinks I'm not logged in. login.php - processes the login information Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); include('functions.php'); connect(); // note: session_start needs to be on every document apart // from index.php, login.php and register.php $username = protect($_POST['username']); $password = protect($_POST['password']); // the password and username from the inputs are stored in variables if ($username&&$password) { // if both the username and password variables are true $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username'"); $numrow = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($numrow!=0) { // if $numrow does not equal nothing while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $userid = $row['userid']; $dbusername = $row['username']; $dbpassword = $row['password']; } if ($username==$dbusername&&md5($password)==$dbpassword) { // $password gets encrypted so it can be checked on the database password $_SESSION['username'] = $username; $_SESSION['userid'] = $userid; // used for sessions knowing who is logged in header("Location:main.php"); // redirects to main.php page after successful login } else { echo "Incorrect password"; } } else { ?> <html> <head> <title>University Crusade</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, minimum-scale=1,maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <?php die (" That account doesn't exist...<br /><a href=\"index.php\">try again,</a> <a href=\"register.php\">or register an account.</a> "); } } else { die("Please enter a username and password"); } ?> </div> <div id="footer"> </div> </body> </html> and the main.php - after login.php it takes the user here Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); include('functions.php'); connect(); ?> <html> <head> <title>University Crusade</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/new.css" type="text/css" media="screen"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, minimum-scale=1,maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"> </head> <body> <?php if (isset($_SESSION['userid'])) { include('safe.php'); ?> <ul id="tab-nav"> <li><a href="stats.php" id="tab-character">CHARACTER</a></li> <li><a href="games.php" id="tab-games">GAMES</a></li> <li><a href="account.php" id="tab-account">ACCOUNT</a></li> </ul> <div id="wrapper"> <h2 id="name">Hello, <?php echo $_SESSION['username'] ?>!</h2> <p> Welcome to UNIVERSITY CRUSADE the fantasy-themed pervasive web game! </p> <p> To start playing, begin with clicking the "games" button at the top of the screen, from there choose a challenge and follow the instructions </p> <p> What are the other buttons for?

Hi all, I'm in trouble with a strange problem. At the system login a script sets a $_SESSION['status'], this keeps user status for admin (a), user (u), and so on... In another part of the system I need to post a value also called 'status': Code: [Select] <input value="N" type="hidden" name="status"/> and this 'status' value has nothing to do with 'status' session. The problem is that when I post the value 'N' it overwrite the session value, crashing the system then. The most strange is that on the localhost the problem does not happen, it only occurs on the server. Any clue? Thankx Danilo Jr. Hi, I'm kinda new to php, so I followed a video tutorial on making a login/registration system and nearly everything works, except for when a registered user follows a link to the members.php page, the $_SESSION variable is supposed to check if they are logged-in and say "Welcome, [name of user]!. But it keeps saying I need to be logged in, even though I am. The php code from the members.php page. Code: [Select] if ($_SESSION['username']) { echo "Welcome," .$_SESSION['username']. "!"; } else { die ("You must be logged in."); } This is the php code form the login page. Code: [Select] session_start(); $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; if ($username&&$password) { $connect = mysql_connect("localhost","root","password") or die ("Unable to connect"); mysql_select_db("database") or die ("Unable to find database"); $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username'"); $numrow = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($numrow!=0) { // while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $dbusername = $row['username']; $dbpassword = $row['password']; } if ($username==$dbusername&&md5($password)==$dbpassword) echo "You're in! - <a href=\"members.php\">Go to members page</a>"; $_SESSION['username'] == $dbusername; } else { echo "Incorrect password"; } } else { die ("That user doesn't exist"); } } else { die("Please enter a username and password"); } Any help would be much appreciated. I am trying to create a history of requested URI's (upto 3) for two purposes Login page and Error Logging. My problem is the Session is written and the values are set yet i can not retrieve the values in it upon a refresh. The use of an Array is to manage the quantity of max values (not written in yet).
<?phpSession contains REQUEST_URI|a:1:{i:0;s:19:"1422925783,/~Debug/";}After a refresh i expect REQUEST_URI|a:2:{i:0;s:19:"1422925783,/~Debug/";i:1;s:28:"1422925784,/~Debug/index.php";}Yet it only contains REQUEST_URI|a:1:{i:0;s:28:"1422925784,/~Debug/index.php";} So like When somones enter my site it shows them as a guest, but then if they havn't clicked anywere for about 5minutes and then refresh or if somone else refresh it will delete from the active users list because it's been over 5 minutes, but then if that same person refreshes again my script wont catch them as a GUEST AGAIN!!

The format I am using is: $_SESSION['cart']['itemid']['qty'] I realise that i could write a for loop to start at item id 0 and end at 1000 each time totalling the qty field but there must be a better, more efficient way, Does anybody have any advice? Mark Hi folks, I have an initial redirect page which directs to my main page, sending two reference variables as $_GET parameters: Code: [Select] header("Location: /ob/index.php?id=".$id."&ref=".$ref); The first thing this main page does is include a file which checks for those two values: Code: [Select] if (substr_count($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING'], 'gzip')) ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); else ob_start(); session_start(); error_reporting(E_ALL); if (isset($_GET['id']) && isset($_GET['ref'])){ $_SESSION['id'] = $_GET['id']; $_SESSION['ref'] = $_GET['ref']; } if(!isset($_SESSION['id']) || $_SESSION['id']=="" || !isset($_SESSION['ref']) || $_SESSION['ref']==""){ echo ("This service requires a valid ID to run - your session may have expired, please refresh your browser to try again."); exit; } The main page loads fine - meaning that the $_SESSION variables have been set correctly. However, when the next page loads (including the same file), the $_GET values obviously aren't there but the $_SESSION variables should be intact. I am getting fails every time though in Opera and Safari (have checked in IE, FF and Chrome and all seems well). However, if I then refresh the browser - in both Opera and Safari - the next page loads fine and the $_SESSION variables are correctly set. Any ideas on this at all? Many thanks in advance, Rich Hello everyone, I am working on a form that is similar to a shopping cart system and I am thinking of creating a button that submits the checked value and saves them to a $_SESSION variable. And also a link that links to a cart.html that takes the values of a $_SESSION variable. I am have trouble figuring what tag/attribute should I use in order to achieve that.
Right now my code attached below submits the checked values to cart.html directly. However I want my submit button to save the checked box to a $_SESSION variable and STAY on the same page. And then I will implement a <a> to link to the cart.php.
I researched a little bit about this subject and I know it's somewhat related to ajax/jquery. I just wanted to know more about it from you guys. I appreciate your attention for reading the post and Thanks!
Below is the form that I currently have:
<form name= "finalForm" method="POST" action="cart.php"> <input type="Submit" name="finalSelected"/> <?php foreach($FinalName as $key => $item) {?> <tr> <td><input type="checkbox" name="fSelected[]" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($FinalID[$key])?>" /> <?php echo "$FinalID[$key] & $item";?> </td> </tr> <?php } ;?>Below is the code for cart.php <?php require ('connect_db.php'); if(isset($_POST['finalSelected'])) { if(!empty($_POST['fSelected'])) { $chosen = $_POST['fSelected']; foreach ($chosen as $item) echo "aID selected: $item </br>"; $delimit = implode(", ", $chosen); print_r($delimit); } } if(isset($delimit)) { $cartSQL = "SELECT * from article where aID in ($delimit)"; $cartQuery = mysqli_query($dbc, $cartSQL) or die (mysqli_error($dbc)); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($cartQuery, MYSQLI_BOTH)) { $aTitle[] = $row[ 'name' ]; } } ?> <table> <?php if(isset($delimit)) { $c=0; foreach($aTitle as $item) {?> <tr> <td> <?php echo $aTitle[$c]; $c++;?> </td> </tr> <?php }}?> </table> Quote Hi guys, I have a question, I have a fairly large site wich we have resellers for, but in certain circumstances for admin purposes, we need to be able to login under the same credentials EG: I might be doing something on one machine and i need to log in on another machine to do something else but with my user name and pass At the moment when i try to to this It will log out the session already logged in when i try to log in from the other machine Is there away around this,, i suspect that when i log in from the other machine its ending the first session Any Idears Guys and Gals..... really stuck Hi Guys, I have the following $pattern = '<tr class="newsitem">'; when I echo this out it produces <tr class="newsitem"> </tr> Why is it automatically closing the tag? I dont want this becuase i'm using preg_replace and the tag is closed elsewhere already on the page. I was curious.. I read that after using a PDO connection you should set the object to null to close it out. In this instance: Code: [Select] function IsOwner($regionid, $user) { global $Username, $SQL_Server, $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass; $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$SQL_Server;dbname=$SQL_Database", $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass); $sql = $pdo->prepare("SELECT count(region_id) FROM region_players WHERE region_id = ? AND user_id = ? AND owner = 1"); $sql->execute(array($regionid, $user)); if ($sql->rowCount() == 0) { return false; } else { return true; } $pdo = null; } Since the return is called prior to the nulling, does it leave a connection hanging or does PHP do some sort of auto-closeout when a function ends? Should I instead be doing: Code: [Select] function IsOwner($regionid, $user) { global $Username, $SQL_Server, $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass; $ownerstatus = false; $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$SQL_Server;dbname=$SQL_Database", $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass); $sql = $pdo->prepare("SELECT count(region_id) FROM region_players WHERE region_id = ? AND user_id = ? AND owner = 1"); $sql->execute(array($regionid, $user)); if ($sql->rowCount() > 0) $ownerstatus = true; $pdo = null; return $ownerstatus; } ? Hi Have an issue with a script that connects to multiple Access databases to extract data. There is one master database and then numerous small databases (I take no responsibility for the design!). The master is opened and then the sub databases are looped around, opened process and closed in turn. However after about 20 connections I get the error [ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Too many client tasks for any new connections. It is related to the number of connections rather than the number of operations on databases (ie, if I comment out one of the pieces of SQL run on each database it makes no difference). I am closing the connection and unsetting the variable that stores the connection. As such there shouldn't be an excess of connections open at any one time. Any suggestions? All the best Keith Hello, I'm working on a page where users can add articles by writing text in textareas with a WYSIWYG editor. When they submit the form it's saved in a database. As a summary of the article i grab the first 800 characters of the article, but as you could imagine there might occur html tags like <div> or <span> in the summary which are not closed. To prevent this from ruining my page layout when their articles are posted on the wegbsite I could use strip_tags but I'd like to keep the format, also this would delete images. I couldn't think of another solution then a function which checks for open tags and if so; add closing tags at the end of the summary. I already made a similar function a while back, but that one only checks for <div> and <span>, as those are the worst.. The nasty part is that I kind of deleted that function accidentally, and I can't fully remember how I wrote that.. So what I would like to have is a function that checks for all unclosed html tags and add the associated closing tags, in the right order, at the end of the summary. Any help getting on the right track is appreciated. Hi, I wonder if there is any simple solution for the following. I have a login script (existing script modified for my site) that pops up in greybox (found at: orangoo.com/labs/GreyBox/). When clicked on Login a function is called which checks if the login is correct an then goes to a page. This is written in PHP. To refer to an page the following code is used => header ("Location: index.php"); This is working but off course the referral page is opened inside the greybox. I would like the greybox to close and the index.php page to reload. You can see what I'm trying on www.mypersonalad.org click "Aanmelden" in the upper left corner. Login: "testing" pass: "test". Please don't hack I have only heard about injection and have no protection for the moment. That's for later. I've tried adding code like this in php => header("Location: index.php onclick=\"parent.parent.GB_hide();\""); But that is not working. My thoughts are that I should check in my login page (the one in greybox) if the user is already logged in. If he is logged in give a message like: "You are now logged in. This page closes automatically in 2 seconds". But I don't know how to do this. Any help please? There are no opening and closing tags in the code example of the file PostsController.php in this tutorial:
http://book.cakephp....g/part-two.html
Should I always use opening and closing PHP tags throughout with CakePHP? Hello fellow coders!

Hi, i m playing arround with php sessions and just started afew testing on it (i never actually used them so i m discovering something new) and i would like to know how can you terminate an PHP Session without closing your browser. For testing i did this small code, just to see the behavior: Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); $id = session_id(); echo $id; session_unset(); session_destroy(); ?> The code above seens only to kill the $_SESSION's variables but what i would like is to Kill the PHPSESSID cookie/session cookie. is there anyway you can achive that? thanks in advance Hi i have made a login in system for a website iam trying to make. after you log in im trying to display the members username via the $_session created in the check_login.php. but when i Echo or print_r the $_session all is get is "welcome array" its like its not passing any information via the $_session from page to page. here is my code thanks in advance. Check_login.php session_start(); // username and password sent from form $myusername=$_POST['myusername']; $mypassword=md5($_POST["mypassword"]); // 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); $sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username='$myusername' and password='$mypassword'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); // 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; $_SESSION["mypassword"]; header("location:login_success.php"); } else { echo "Wrong Username or Password"; } ?> login_success.php <? session_start(); if($_SESSION['myusername']="$myusername"){ header("location:main_login.php"); } Echo "welcome" . $_SESSION['$myusername']; ?> thanks edited |
