Register and Login (User Account System) doesn't work
Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 11:52 pm
I'm following the tutorial, and I wrote 3 files:
init.inc.php
Warning: mysql_result() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\xampp\htdocs\betterphp_tutos\Register_login_simple\inc\user.inc.php on line 9
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\betterphp_tutos\Register_login_simple\inc\user.inc.php:40) in C:\xampp\htdocs\betterphp_tutos\Register_login_simple\register.php on line 32
I revised the script but I don't found what is wrong, Can someone help me, please?
init.inc.php
<?php

header('Location: login.php');
}
}
mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '');
mysql_select_db('betterphp_register_login_simple');
$path = dirname(_FILE_);
include("{$path}/inc/user.inc.php");
?>
user.inc,php
<?php
