Hi all,
I tried Kevin's sessions tutorial and had a play around with my own file, thus:
PHP Code:
<?php // index.php
session_start();
include_once './inc/db.inc';
$uid = isset($_POST['EMail']) ? $_POST['EMail'] : $_SESSION['EMail'];
$pwd = isset($_POST['Password']) ? $_POST['Password'] : $_SESSION['Password'];
if(!isset($_SESSION['EMail'])) {
$_SESSION['EMail'] = '';
}
if(!isset($_POST['SUBMITFORM'])) {
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>...</title>
FORM GOES HERE:
<FORM METHOD="POST" NAME="Login" AUTOCOMPLETE="off" action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>">
<table width="200" height="122" border="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<tr>
<td valign="middle" align="right" class="mediumblack">EMail </td>
<td width="65%" class="forminput"><INPUT TYPE="text" class="forminput" NAME="EMail" size="20" maxlength="35" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="middle" align="right" class="mediumblack">Password </td>
<td class="forminput"><INPUT TYPE="password" class="forminput" NAME="Password" size="20" maxlength="20" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><br></td>
<td align="center">
<input type="checkbox" name="autologin" value="Y">Automatic login<br> <a href="#">What is this?</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><br></td>
<td valign="bottom" align="center" height="18">
<!-- <input type="image" src="img/go.gif" border="0"> -->
<INPUT name="SUBMITFORM" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Login">
</td>
</tr>
<tr align="center">
<td height="18" colspan="2" valign="bottom"><a href="#" title="Forgot Password">Forgot your password?</a></td>
</tr>
<tr align="center">
<td height="18" colspan="2" valign="bottom"><a aref="join.php" title="Join Here">Not a Member yet?</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</FORM>
</html>
<?php
}
else {
$_SESSION['EMail'] = (string) $_POST['EMail'];
$_SESSION['Password'] = (string) $_POST['Password'];
}
dbConnect("pa");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM members WHERE
mEMail = '$EMail' AND mPassword = PASSWORD('$Password')";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if (!$result) {
error('A database error occurred while checking your '.
'login details.\\nIfhis error persists, please '.
'contact [email]you@example.com[/email].');
}
if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) {
unset($_SESSION['EMail']);
?>

<h1> Access Denied </h1>
<p>Your user ID or password is incorrect, or you are not a

<?php
exit;
}
?>
However, at the bottom of the page, it keeps printing the 'Access Denied' part.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
Thanks.
