First time posting here so bear with me if I am posting wrong etc (Also just getting into PHP mainly now)
So I followed this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVwdnDXG4og
I got all the way to the end but when I go to test it out I keep getting redirected to the login.php page. (I think it may have something to do with the init.inc.php file. Here is the code for all pages (I know there is a lot of comments, please ignore em as its for my own benefit)
init.inc.php file
<?php
session_start();
//This will not get prompted for login when we try to go to login
$exceptions = array('register', 'login');
// End function returns the last elements in an array. Explode puts the elements of an array into a character. The / will remove the /links from the url
$page = explode('/', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
echo end($page);
//Check if a user is on a page that is not in excetpion. If they are not, check if they are logged in. If not send em to login page.
if (in_array($page, $exceptions) === false) {
if (isset($_SESSION['username']) === false){
header('Location: login.php'); // If they are not logged in direct them to login page
die(); // Kill the script
}
}
// conect to database
mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '');
// select table
mysql_select_db('members');
$path = dirname(__FILE__); // Always full path of current script
include("{path}/inc/user.inc.php");
?>
register.php file:<?php
include ('core/init.inc.php'); // Takes details from init.inc
// Will only get inside the below block if something has been submitted
if (isset($_POST['username'], $_POST['password'], $_POST['repeat_password'])) {
if (empty($_POST['username'])){
$errors[] = 'The Username cannot be empty.' ; // Basically means that if the username is empty, it will say it cannot be empty
}
if (empty($_POST['password']) || empty($_POST['repeat_password'])){
$errors[] = 'The password cannot be empty.';
} // Make sure there is no empty space in password
if ($_POST['password'] !== $_POST['repeat_password']) {
$errors[] = 'Password verification failed.'; // Checks to make sure both passwords are same
}
if (user_exists($_POST['username'])) {
$errors[] = 'The Username you entered is already taken.'; // Checks if username is taken
}
if (empty($errors)) {
add_user($_POST['username'], $_POST['password']);
// Bit below sets username to session variable to log them in for their session
$_SESSION['username'] = htmlentities($_POST['username']);
header('Location: protected.php');
die();
}
}
?>
