I'd recmmend you use the $_POST vars as this is more secure

Pete,

Thanks for the tip. I do use $_REQUEST[] and then convert to variables.

I moved my code to another machine and it was OK, so I've narrowed it down
to a MS upgrade! Obviously tinkered with something.

Oh dear.. Access is a real pain in the butt and we now NEVER deal with a
client that selects Access. Never had any complaints since.

suggestions - mysql - postgresql - Firebird ...

Hi all,

Just finishing off a site using odbc and Access and it's thrown

up a problem


that wasn't there yesterday.

I have a simple login with a username and password. If either

are blank, the


user gets bumped to the login page. otherwise the user table is

searched for


the username and password.

my code looks like:

$strSQL = "select * from user where (Username='$username' and
Paswd='$paswd')";

I have an error script that kicks in if the query fails, and prints the
query to screen. I've pasted the query straight into Access' SQL query
window and it worked fine.

I just can't see anything wrong with the code, or anything else.

Any suggestions (apart from dropping Access in favour of

another db - client


choice)

Cheers

George in Oxford
