Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

Hi...I tried to create a login using the script that was posted...I uploaded it to try it and I am receiving an error message.
The error message is saying the following:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /homepages/41/d171920401/htdocs/Beta_Site/login2.php on line 9

Does anyone have any suggestions what I m doing wrong?

Thanks,
John

How do you set up a database containing all of my member login info?

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

The session cache limiter command has to be before the session_start command. Change your script. However, it can also fail for other reasons too. Please post here the first 14 lines of your script.

<?php
$usernames = array("user1", "user2", "user3", "superman");
$passwords = array("pass1", "pass2", "password3", "supermans password");
$page = "testlogin.php";



for($i=0;$i<count($usernames);$i++){
$logindata[$usernames[$i]]=$passwords[$i];
}
if($logindata[$_POST['username']]==$_POST[be 'password']){ what is this "be"?
session_start();
$_SESSION[username]=$_POST['username']; Should
header('Location: '.$page); Should be header ('Location $page');

First 14 just incase heres the rest

exit;
}else{
header('Location: login.php?wrong=1');
exit;
}
?>

I found these in this part of the script. There might be other errors. Please also use single quotes, as i corrected it.

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

Did you place this script inside a BV page ?

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

no. I got to cpanel and then filemanager. I write scripts/edit/fix in notepad and then upload to public_html

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

Well, to debug i would need to install the whole script and see what it does. However, i see that you have a clan site. I beleive that such a script, where you should always update it manually, is not a good solution for you (i beleive that you expect to have many members, so you would need a script that allows users to register themselves, then the username and password are stored in a database, and the script would retreive the info from the database

no, the script is for a friend of mine. and I dont mind managing his users. Also, he doesnt want auto registration. If you could debug the script for me that be sooo awsome!

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

also, navaldesign. consider writing a topic on a mysql login database script?

Re: [TUTORIAL] Creating a login script for multiple users.

I do have a full MySQL login script that i created for my clients. However, it requires a registration form and some additional knowledge for installing it, since it is part of a major script system, it is not a stand alone.

Creating such scripts, and then creating a tutorial, is very time consuming, and since my work only allows for limited free time, i will do it when i'll be able to.
