I am having a problem with a simple script that uses session variables. It
is a user authentication script and none of my users have had any problems
with the exception of one individual. The session variables simply don't
carry over. I am half convinced that it is user error, but have any of you
run across a problem like this? He is running MSN8 on WXP.
Thanks!

in the php.ini make sure the global register=on. PHP 4+ this is set to off
by default.

Hi
I have only one major problem with the solution below and that is as follows:
MySQL does not follow SQL standards ie: You could have been using data types
that would not import to a PgSQL server and there is little to nothing you can
do about that!!!
Sorry to be the one to tell you this, but I fell in the same trap long ago
Cheers

Sands,
Whilst I take Leon`s point about running into conversion problems, data is
data! - you may not find exact equivalents to field types, autoincrement
presents its own head scratchers and so on. But what can be ripped out of
one format can generally be stuffed into another. Blobs certainly rule out
earlier dbase formats, but dBase 4 has them (up to certain size limits) or
they can be stored as separate files with just the file name in a cell or
text field (requiring your customers to change things at their end also
perhaps - this even works with spreadsheets). The so called boolean or true
false field is just a byte at the end of the day, 0 or 1, datetime or
datastamp formats are easy to change from one to another. I`m not saying
its easy, and I`m NOT volunteering to have a go, but I have done it many
times without hitting brick walls. Sometimes a goodly amount of programming
effort is required, but unless you are trying to store a 5 megabyte blob in
a 1980 model dBase 3 file or a spreadsheet format or some such other
impossibility I cannot see exactly what else would stop you cold. Tell me
about the blob fields for instance, how big are the blobs, what vintage of
dbase file are they to go in. Are the blobs binary or text? (like a dbase
MEMO field) . Will your client allow you to frig with his tables or
spreadsheets just a little bit, stubborn as some of them are?
The devil is in the detail. But before you get too involved in this Sands,
we may be getting a bit "off topic" here, this PHP-Windows list may not be
the right arena methinks.

Thanks for all for the response.
My application work in the Win32 system with Apache web_server and have
php.ini directives configurated like
auto_prepend_file=C:\OPENFEDRA\apache\htdocs\systemvariables.php
My PHP script do not have any include_once() function because the directives of
the PHP include the script systemVariables automatically in the code.
The question it is:
Instead to have auto_prepend_file configurated and to use include_once() in
any script PHP, It is possible to have any ather solutions????
Can anyone have same code sample for me to resolve my problems?
Thanks for all. ciao Franco.

Hi,
I am coding a community site and am, (once again) experimenting with a
user system.
Currently I have a user class that checks the user's username and
password with the database and returns them to a login script (with the
password md5 encoded). The login script then registers these (password
and username) variables using session_register().
My aim is to keep the user logged in indefinitely, until they logout;
using the appropriate function.
During my experimentation, I have tried session_set_cookie_params() - to
no avail. I then reverted to saving the username, password and session
id in a cookie and then checking for these, like so:
<?PHP
session_start();
//get all the extra files needed for every page.
include('dbinfo.inc');
include('database.class.php');
include('user.class.php');
//login check
if(IsSet($_COOKIE['cookie_username']) &&
IsSet($_COOKIE['cookie_password'])){
$localuser = new userclass();
$localuser->setup($dbserver,$dbuser,$dbpass,$dbname);
$localuser->connect();
$username = $_COOKIE['cookie_username'];
$password = $_COOKIE['cookie_password'];
$localuser->check_user($username, $password);// check function
if($localuser->check){// returned true from the user class if username
and md5 hash match with those in the database
$s_id = $_COOKIE['cookie_session'];
session_id($s_id);
session_register('username');
session_register('password');
$login = true;
}
else{
$login = false;
}
}
else{
$login = false;
}
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>test login</title>
</head>
<body>
<?PHP
$username = $_SESSION['username'];
$password = $_SESSION['password'];
echo"<b>Login</b> = $login <br>";
echo"<b>Username:</b> $username <br>";
echo"<b>Password:</b> $password <br>";
echo"<b>Session ID:</b>";
print(session_id());
?>
The above code gives the following:
Login = 1
Username:
Password:
Session ID:95a607dc349f91b2a08c8533538b8694
Clearly, the login returns true and the session id has been used, but
the password and username have not been registered. I have been playing
around with this for a while now, and am a little stuck.
Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks in advance.

My guess is that the session ID is changing. Try adding the session ID to
the end of the URL and see if the output matches. If not, you know where the
problem lies.
e.g. header( "Location: url/page.php?SessionIDViaQuery=".session_id() );
Okay, so its harder on your page as your login script is on the same page as
your output. In my system the form directs to the login page, which then
redirects the user onwards depending on the output.
login.php
Form Submits to
members/newuserlogin.php
IF Successful Login
redirects to
members/index.php
IF Unsuccessful Login
redirects to
login.php?error=X
where X is a pre-defined error number (e.g. 1 = bad
username/pass, 2 = suspended)
Good luck
Stephen

Hello Kieran,
Wednesday, December 04, 2002, 5:12:07 PM, you wrote:
KH> <?PHP
KH> session_start();

You forgot these lines ^^^^^^^^^^^^.
Now you can test it something like that
<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION['username']) || !isset($_SESSION['password'])) {
session_register('username');
session_register('password');
header("Location: ".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
exit;
} else {
echo $_SESSION['password']." - ".$_SESSION['username'];
}
?>

You can do it by checking if the submit button was pressed:
if (isset($name_of_the_submit_button)) {
// the button was pressed
}
Maybe you can include checking a hidden field.

The variable $HTTP_REFERER will tell you the origin of the request.
So you can check it with:
if (EREG('xxx.php$',$HTTP_REFERER)) { //only look for the name file
//process data
}
------ or -------
if ($HTTP_REFERER=='www.yyy.com/path/xxx.php') { //look for the entire url
//process data
}
*** where xxx.php is the url of the form source
Hope it can help you any way.

I updated php from version 3 to 4.2.3 on a win NT 4 server (with iss 4).
Everything went ok, but the include() function.
I have problems when including files.
I tried to specify a directory in the php.ini file but it still didn't work.
This is how i have the include line:
include ('file.inc');
I copied the file to the folder where my php file is, to the directory where
originally was (x:\path\includes) and it doesn't work.
I really need some help.

include takes the base directory to be the same directory the script is in.
e.g.
Running the file c:\my_web\Stephen\index.php
include( "hello.php" )
this includes the file c:\my_web\Stephen\hello.php
Hope this helps
Stephen

Thanks for all.
My end it is Apache 1.3.27 and PHP 4.3.2 in Win32 system NT 4.0.
I have the php.ini auto_prepend_file like this:
auto_prepend_file="C:\OPENFEDRA\Apache\htdocs\fedra\sv\cfg\"
All work fine with this configuration of the php.ini.
For same reason I must to do not configure php.ini and the directives
auto_prepend_file must be null like auto_prepend_file =.
I have discovered ini_alter function but I do not be able to work in my
application.
My script it is like:
<?
$path="C:\\OPENFEDRA\\Apache\\htdocs\\fedra\\sv\\cfg\\";
echo"<br>$path<br>";
if(ini_alter('auto_prepend_file', $path.'systemVariables.php'))
echo "<br>ini_alter success<br>";
else
echo "<br>ini_alter failed<br>";
but do not work.
If I change the ini_alter with include() it work all fine but I do not
want to use include or require function.
have sameone an idea about this code do not work??
Thanks for all and if it is possible reply to me also to e-mail follow.

I am running PHP and MySQL on the following platforms;Windows 2000, XP and
ME and I am finding that the same code does not work. Can some one please
explain this to me?
It fails on the connect string every time. Is there a reason for this?
Windows 2000 = No work
XP = No work
ME = Does work
<?
$connection = @mysql_connect("localhost", "myUserName", "MyPassword")
or die("Couldn't connect.");
if ($connection) {
$msg = "success!";
}
?>
Thank you
Jim Ray

If the other machines are to connect to MySQL on the ME box, then
"localhost" isn't going to work - but you don't mean that, you have three
separate but almost identical installations, don't you?
Have all three machines been set up with the same userId and pswd, so
there's no issue there?
On each machine, and using that/those ID/pswds, can you connect to a DB/tbl
by using the command line client or MySQLControlCenter?
Rather than using DIE, what happens if you ask for the error number and
text?
Please advise,
