problem with php page not linking

sophia_

hi everyone 🙂

got a problem accessing/opening the users' page here

what is meant to happen;

the user logs on with user name and password

the submit button then opens the users page

ie:

username: user1
password : pass1

opens

user1.php

but it doesn't 🙁

this is the folder structure:

user1.php sits in the sub-folder 'users'

here is the code.......

<?php
session_start();

$message = "Please Log in.";

if(!empty($_POST['username']) and !empty($_POST['password'])){
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];

if(($username == "user1") and ($password == "pass1") or
($username == "user2") and ($password == "pass2") or
($username == "user3") and ($password == "pass3") or
($username == "user4") and ($password == "pass4") or
($username == "user5") and ($password == "pass5") or
($username == "user6") and ($password == "pass6") or
($username == "user7") and ($password == "pass7")){
$_SESSION['user'] = $username;
header("Location: /users/{$username}.php");
die;
}else{
$message = "Your username and or password are incorrect.";
}
}

?>

<p><input type="submit" value="Login &rarr;" /></p>

</form>

</html>

user1.php

<?php
session_start();
$page = basename(htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']));
$page = explode(".", $page);
if(!empty($_SESSION['user']) or ($page['0'] != $_SESSION['user'])){
header("Location: /");
die;
}
?>

the users html page content is here

anyone got any ideas where i am going wrong here?

Hi, Sophia, and welcome to the forums.

Note that I added the forum's

 [url=http://phpbuilder.com/board/misc.php?do=bbcode]bbcode tags[/url] around your code to make it more readable.

I think your problem is the "!" before the empty() check on the user's page. I think you'll find that if you remove it it should then work OK.

wow!! yeah that's 10x better, thanks for that 😃

ok, i removed the "!" before the empty() on the user's page but 🙁

still the same

i hve checked the page info and the blank page that is being produced/opened has the reference www.mysite.com/content/login/login.php

i am stuck here 🙁

hey, thanks for your input though 🙂

I think your username/password and/or syntax is not doing what you want. It would need to be:

if(
   ($username == "user1" and $password == "pass1") or
   ($username == "user2" and $password == "pass2") or
   ($username == "user3" and $password == "pass3") or
   ($username == "user4" and $password == "pass4") or
   ($username == "user5" and $password == "pass5") or
   ($username == "user6" and $password == "pass6") or
   ($username == "user7" and $password == "pass7")
){

However, a somewhat easier to maintain version might be:

$users = array(
   "user1" => "pass1",
   "user2" => "pass2",
   "user3" => "pass3",
   "user4" => "pass4",
   "user5" => "pass5",
   "user6" => "pass6",
   "user7" => "pass7"
);
if(array_key_exists($username, $users) and $users[$username] == $password)
{
   // good login
}

$message = "Please Log in.";

if(!empty($_POST['username']) and !empty($_POST['password'])){

$username = $_POST['username'];

$password = $_POST['password'];

if(($username == "user1") and ($password == "pass1") or

</html>

change "user1" to "your clients name" ... "user2" "user3" etc

change "pass1" to "your clients password" ... "pass2" "pass3" etc

user page

<?php

session_start();

$page = basename(htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']));

$page = explode(".", $page);

if(empty($_SESSION['user']) or ($page['0'] != $_SESSION['user'])){

header("Location: /");

die;

}

?>

the users html page content goes here

add this to each user page

and thats it ... its a wrap

multi-client log-in to personal "private" pages within your site

ehehehehehe

thanks to all
