I'm completing the video tutorial for the php log in script and I'm having trouble getting it to work. It keeps returning that my user/password are wrong even though I have checked these. can anyone help?
PHP Code:
<?php
///////////////////////////////
$database = "db";
$username = "user";
$password = "password";
///////////////////////////////
// Choose Connection
$link = @mysql_connect($database ,$username, $password);
$db =mysql_select_db($database, $link);
//catch field data
$userid = $_POST['userid'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$submitted = $_POST['submitted'];
if ($userid && $password) {
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$query = sprintf("SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_name = '$userid' AND user_password = '$password'");
$result =@mysql_query($query);
$rowAccount =@mysql_fetch_array($result);
//
}
if($rowAccount) {
echo "Success";
exit;
}elseif($rowAccount){
echo "fail";
}
?>
