Coding an entire E-commerce solution in php would not be an easy task especially if you are new to php

you should try using ZenCart its an opensource e-commerce solution that i am using for a job right now its really amazing to see what you can do with it i dont suggest trying to build your own e-commerce package for small jobs simply bcuz of how long it would take and secondly vunderability issues.

http://zencart.com

Looks very nice.. Thanks for the link..

But using that won't help me understand PHP better, I made that Plaincart e commerce by the help of a tutorial, which explained everything..

    The problem seems to be with one line in this SQL query:

       $sql = "SELECT user_id
          FROM tbl_user
          WHERE user_name = '$userName' AND
                user_password = PASSWORD('$password')";

    The login process works fine if you change the last line to just:

                    user_password = '$password'";

    For an explanation why, check http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-php/2003-01/msg00030.php

      IT WORKED!!!!
      I've tried looking for the error for about 6 weeks now, even my friends who are pretty good with PHP and MySQL didn't crack the nut!!
      I can't thank you enough, THANKS A LOT!!! 😃 🙂

        I have the same problem i tried changing the last line but it still did not work for me. maybe because i set the browser to remember the password when i was trying to login so maybe it saved thge wrong password.

              lisa007, this is a 4 year old thread, you should start your own, also when dealing with a third-party script the support site they offer is more likely to be able to assist

                    The created password field from the plaincart.sql file creates a varchar field at 32 characters.

                    It puts in the hashed password 43e9a4ab75570f5b

                    If you change the password field length (I did 255) and put in *4ACFE3202A5FF5CF467898FC58AAB1D615029441 on the admin user record password field you can now login with user: admin password: admin

                    Once in the admin backend, you can change the password.

                    You can also easily run a MySQL query like SELECT PASSWORD('whateveryouwanthere');
                    This will generate a hashed password to match whatever you put between the single quotes. That way it will still remain a bit more secure.

                    If you remove the line as stated above, you can make your script a bit easier to hack through.
