I'm getting an error of: Fatal error: Call to undefined function validate_credentials() in /home/a2954500/public_html/messages/core/init.inc.php on line 18 When I login.


init.inc.php
<?php

$core_path = dirname(__FILE__);

if (empty($_GET['page']) || in_array("{$_GET['page']}.page.inc.php", scandir("{$core_path}/pages")) == false){
	header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
	header('Location: index.php?page=inbox');
	
	die();
}

session_start();

mysql_connect('mysql12.000webhost.com', '*Hidden*', '*Hidden*');
mysql_select_db('a2954500_users');

if (isset($_POST['user_name'], $_POST['user_password'])){
        if (($user_id = validate_credentials($_POST['user_name'], $_POST['user_password'])) !== false){
                $_SESSION['user_id'] = $user_id;
        header('Location: index.php?page=inbox');      
        die();
        }  
}

if (empty($_SESSION['user_id']) && $_GET['page'] !== 'login'){
	header('HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden');
	header('location: index.php?page=login');
	
	die();
}

$include_file = "{$core_path}/pages/{$_GET['page']}.page.inc.php";
?>
user.inc.php
<?php

// checks a given username and password combination, returning the user's ID.
function validate_credentials($user_name, $user_password){
        $user_name = mysql_real_escape_string($user_name);
        $user_password = sha1($user_password);
	
	$result = mysql_query("SELECT `user_id` FROM `users` WHERE `user_name` = '{$user_name}' AND `user_password` = '{$user_password}'");
	
	if (mysql_num_rows($result) != 1){
		return false;
	}
	
	return mysql_result($result, 0);
}

?>

Umm are you sure you posted the code right? You're saying init.inc.php is exactly the same as user.inc.php...

You're not including user.inc.php in your init.int.php file so the function is never being defined.
