Hi,
Okay I created a user/pass login area. I created the following code.
Now I want the secure area to send a cookie to the users PC we can track so
I can make multiple pages without the need for the user to login to each
page individually. I want to know what is the best method/code to use as a
cookie with the following code. Thanks for the help in advance!
<?
$password=$_POST['pass'];
mysql_connect ("localhost", "db_username", "db_password") or die ('My SQL
Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("db_dbname");
$stuff = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE userName='".$userName."'
AND userPass='".$userPass."'") or die("MySQL Login Error:
".mysql_error());
if (mysql_num_rows($stuff) > 0) {
$row=mysql_num_rows($stuff);
echo "You are logged in to Admin as $userName <br> <small>Beta
Version</small><br><br>";
}
else{
echo ("<title>Incorrect</title><body bgcolor='black' text='red'
alink='blue' vlink='blue' link='blue'> <center><br><br><br>Incorrect
Password!<br><br><a href='login.php'>try again</a></center> ");
}
?>
