I´m trying to do a username/password verification, but it´s not working, even when the user/pass is correct, it will ask for the pass three times and then deny me the acces to the page, does somebody know what i´m doing wrong
the passwords.txt has the following format: username|password and here´s the code
<?php
if (!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Acceso restringido"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo 'Authorization Required.';
exit;
}
$fich = file("passwords.txt");
$i=0; $validated=false;
while ($fich[$i] && !$validated) {
$field = explode("|",$fich[$i]);
if (($PHP_AUTH_USER==$field[0]) && ($PHP_AUTH_PW==chop($field[1]))) $validated=true;
$i++;
}
if (!$validated) {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Acceso restringido"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo 'Authorization Required.';
exit;
}
?>
