PHP - Cors And Sandboxing User Javascript, And Cookies

Basically I am submitting and retrieving data from a 3rd party's API. But every time I submit a form, it gives me this error.

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://3rdpartywebsite.com/api' from origin 'https://mywebsite.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

 

So I have been researching and there seems to be so many different answers. I have tried adding this code to the page but still get an error.

<?php
// ADD THIS CODE ON THE VERY TOP OF THE PAGE I AM SUBMITTING THE FORM.

header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true");
header("Access-Control-Max-Age: 1000");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Origin, Cache-Control, Pragma, Authorization, Accept, Accept-Encoding");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: PUT, POST, GET, OPTIONS, DELETE");
?>

 

I have also tried to add this to .htaccess file and still get the same error.

Header add Access-Control-Allow-Headers "origin, x-requested-with, content-type"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Methods "PUT, GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS"

 

I was wondering what am I doing wrong? What's the correct way of implementing CORS to my site?

Hello users:

I am exploring the delightful world of PHP for web applications. I am in the stage where I need to use SESSIONS and COOKIES and MYSQL for a user/membership/profile structure. I understand most of the grammar behind PHP and am excited to apply this in application.   I am searching for recommendations and comments about using:

1. COOKIES 2. SESSIONS 3. MYSQL/SQL   Almost every website has an authentication mechanism, profile, and use information. My website required this similar structure, but I have been having some problems completing all of the technical steps for production.   If anyone has code samples or places where I can review code on this topic, that would be wonderful. I am specifically searching for more advanced topics in these area for general robustness.    Please kindly send me a message or respond to this post.

Regards, Diamond

I'm trying use curl to login into a page that sets cookies using javascript, but curl doesn't register the cookies.

Is there another way of getting the javascript cookies?

I would appreciate your assistance, there are tons of login scripts and they work just fine. However I need my operators to login and then list their activities for the other operators who are logged in to see and if desired send their clients on the desired activity. I have the login working like a charm and the activities are listed just beautifully. How do I combine the two tables in the MySQL with PHP so the operator Logged in can only make changes to his listing but see the others.

FIRST THE ONE script the member logges in here to the one table in MSQL:
<?php
   session_start();
   
   require_once('config.php');
   
   $errmsg_arr = array();
   
   $errflag = false;
   
   $link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
   if(!$link) {
      die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
   }
   
   $db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
   if(!$db) {
      die("Unable to select database");
   }
   
   function clean($str) {
      $str = @trim($str);
      if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
         $str = stripslashes($str);
      }
      return mysql_real_escape_string($str);
   }
   
   $login = clean($_POST['login']);
   $password = clean($_POST['password']);
   
   if($login == '') {
      $errmsg_arr[] = 'Login ID missing';
      $errflag = true;
   }
   if($password == '') {
      $errmsg_arr[] = 'Password missing';
      $errflag = true;
   }
   
   if($errflag) {
      $_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr;
      session_write_close();
      header("location: login-form.php");
      exit();
   }
   
   $qry="SELECT * FROM members WHERE login='$login' AND passwd='".md5($_POST['password'])."'";
   $result=mysql_query($qry);
   
   if($result) {
      if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 1) {
         session_regenerate_id();
         $member = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
         $_SESSION['SESS_MEMBER_ID'] = $member['member_id'];
         $_SESSION['SESS_FIRST_NAME'] = $member['firstname'];
         $_SESSION['SESS_LAST_NAME'] = $member['lastname'];
         session_write_close();
         header("location: member-index.php");
         exit();
      }else {
         header("location: login-failed.php");
         exit();
      }
   }else {
      die("Query failed");
   }
?>

Now I need the person who logged in to the table above to be able to make multiple entries to the table below

<?
$ID=$_POST['ID'];
$title=$_POST['title'];
$cost=$_POST['cost'];
$activity=$_POST['activity'];
$ayear=$_POST['aday'];
$aday=$_POST['ayear'];
$seats=$_POST['special'];
$special=$_POST['seats'];
mysql_connect("xxxxxx", "xxx350234427", "========") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("xxxx") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `activity` VALUES ('ID','$title', '$cost','$activity', '$aday', '$ayear', '$special', '$seats')");
Print "Your information has been successfully added to the database!"
?>
Click <a href="member-profile.php">HERE</a> to return to the main menu
  <?php      
?>

hi,

i have made a website where people resgister their details of them and products.

they have to enter the following details in form

Name of company

name of the product

company address

email id 

password 

mobile number contact

and 

brief details about their company 

after filling all details user is registered on website.

user can then login with email id and pwd.

now after login ..user will get a page where he can upload the photos of products images and their price, so now my question is that when he finishes uploading (|by clicking on upload button) the product images and price text box ..then on final uploaded webspage it should show all other things which he registerd before (company name , mobile number etc) along with images and price...hence the main question that user does not need to enter mobile and address while uploading images and filling proce ..but on the final page it should show mobile and address along with price and images..as user is not going to enter mobile and address again and again as he will have multiple products to upload.

thanks in advance .
