Hi, we have been using the following codes on our site for a year and I wanted 
to know if these codes are just spaghetti or its actual usable code. I know it 
can be bettered a lot I just need opinions if the codes can be used a while 
more until we reprogram everything as a complete CMS system.

Thanks a lot! my superiors want to know because there is another coder that 
says these codes are just spaghetti.

There is more codes but i am able to access the database fine and everything 
else. Of course the codes can be bettered but i dont believe its just 
spaghetti!!!!! I used these codes because there was no need to reinvent the 
wheel. I apreciate your help!

I hope you have indenting in your code and it's just the email that came through badly.

I wouldn't say it's spaghetti code but it could do with a clean-up.

--------
if ($loginConnector->getNumRows($getUser)> 0){
  // Login OK, store session details
  // Log in
  $_SESSION["user"] = $user;
  $_SESSION["pass"] = $this->userdata['pass'];
  $_SESSION["thegroup"] = $this->userdata['thegroup'];

  if ($goodRedirect) {
    header("Location: ".$goodRedirect."?".strip_tags(session_id())) ;
  }
  return true;

}else{

If you're returning out of the function there why do you need an else? PHP will automatically skip that block if it's not going to process that code path.

--------
// If user is already logged in then check credentials
if ($_SESSION['user'] && $_SESSION['pass']){
--------
...

reverse that:

if (!isset($_SESSION['user']) || !isset($_SESSION['pass'])) {
  return false;
}


You remove a huge if block which isn't needed.


--------
query('SELECT * FROM vendors WHERE ID = '.$HTTP_GET_VARS['id']);
--------

Go to this website and read everything you can find: http://phpsec.org/projects/guide/

You have sql injection here that needs attention (and if it's here I'm sure there could be other spots too).

Also HTTP_GET_VARS is old, change it to the newer $_GET['id'] syntax.
