hi
I've just successfully installed the php client login and register set-up (http://www.swedesignz.com/php.html?id=7).
I need to extend it to allow a user to login and be directed to their own unique user page.
So I would like the registration form to include a client specific url input area + then modify the login page to redirect the user
to that page once logged in + then to logout from that page.
I assume the database + registration.php will require a user homepage component - with the client being directed home page on being logged in.
Any advice - ideally quite detailed as I am a PHP newbie - on achieving this by modifying the code below would be very much appreciated.
Thanx
Dirk
The pages and code:
//the database
TABLE members (
id MEDIUMINT( 8 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
username VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
firstname VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
lastname VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
password VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
date VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
ip VARCHAR( 50 ) NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY ( id ) ,
UNIQUE (
username
