simple login....not working online??

mdesignone

Hey Guys
I have a really simple login.

The problem is it wont work online, works fine locally.

When i submit the username and password, it just goes back to the login.

Is it my server?? It supports php, i know that.

Can anybody tell me whats wrong??

Here's the script:

...........................................................................

<?php

$LOGIN = "username";
$PASSWORD = "password";

function error ($error_message) {
echo $error_message." ";
exit;
}

if ( (!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) || ! (($PHP_AUTH_USER == $LOGIN) && ( $PHP_AUTH_PW ==

"$PASSWORD" )) ) {
header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic entrer=\"Form2txt admin\"");
header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
error("Unauthorized access...");
}
?>

<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Your protected page</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="white">
 <FONT FACE="Arial, helvetica" SIZE="+2"

COLOR="#336699">My protected page

</BODY></HTML>

When using $PHP_AUTH, you'll run into some trouble when switching from the CGI install of PHP, and the ISAPI install of PHP.

Most likely, you're running the ISAPI locally, but the CGI binary on your server. $PHP_AUTH only works on the ISAPI correctly.

How can i change my server so it runs ISAPI, so my login works correctly.

Consult install.txt which is bundled with PHP, or search around on this forum. You're bound to find a detailed description. (I posted one a few days ago, not sure which forum, however.)

not sure but isn't WWW-Authenticate: Basic entrer=\"Form2txt admin\"");
meant to be WWW-Authenticate: Basic enter=\"Form2txt admin\""); ?
