I agree totally.
So I'm trying to use the $_Server variables but I continue to get this
error:
Parse error: parse error, expecting 'T_STRNG' or 'T_VARIABLE' or
'T_NUM_STRING' in <blah, blah, blah> on line 33.
Here is the script that is doing this:
<?php
// File Name: auth04.php
// Check to see if $PHP_AUTH_USER already contains info
if (!isset($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"])) {
// If empty, send header causing dialog box to appear
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My Private
Stuff"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
exit;
} else if (isset($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"])) {
// If non-empty, check the database for matches
// connect to MySQL
mysql_connect("hostname", "username", "password")
or die ("Unable to connect to database.");
// select database on MySQL server
mysql_select_db("dev_i2ii_com")
or die ("Unable to select database.");
// Formulate the query
$sql = "SELECT *
FROM users
WHERE username='$_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"]' and
password='$_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"]'";
// Execute the query and put results in $result
$result = mysql_query($sql);
// Get number of rows in $result. 0 if invalid, 1 if
valid.
$num = mysql_numrows($result);
if ($num != "0") {
echo "<P>You're authorized!</p>";
exit;
} else {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My
Private Stuff"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo 'Authorization Required.';
exit;
}
}
?>
----------------------
The data base stuff hasn't been put in yet, I'm just trying to get the
script to load cleanly before I trouble shoot the database connector
side.
