How do I add a password checker, so that the php checks the e-mail and password combo, and if not correct, does not allow user into the site? Using a pop up java window to frame the php scripts. Following is the portion of the script checking the email, and allowin subscribe / unsubscribe, etc., but not sure how to check password used as well, and then if not correct combo, close the main window. <?php // connect to db $db = mysql_connect("xxxx","yyy") or die ("Couldn't connect."); mysql_select_db("xxx", $db) or die ("Couldn't select db."); // get a date stamp $add_date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); if ($op != "ds") { //they need to subscribe or unsubscribe $text_block = " <form name=\"form\" method=post action =\"subscribe.phtml\"> <input type=hidden name=op value =ds> <p><strong>Enter Your e-Mail Address. This is / will be your User Name:</strong><br> <input type=text name=\"email\" size=25></p> <p><strong>Enter a Password.</strong><br> <input type=password name=\"password\" size=25></p> <p><strong>Click your selection:</strong><br> <input type=radio name=\"action\" value=\"sub\" checked> Subscribe <input type=radio name=\"action\" value=\"unsub\"> Unsubscribe</p> <p><input type=submit name=\"submit\" value=\"Enter or Subscribe / Unsubscribe Now\"></p> </form> "; } else if (($op == "ds") && ($action == "sub")) { // check they're not already subscribed // then subscribe them or return message $check = "select email from subscribe where email = \"$email\""; $check_result = mysql_query($check) or die("Can't execute check email address."); $check_num = mysql_num_rows($check_result); if ($check_num == 0) { // if $check_num is 0, then no match was found, // and the user should be subscribed $sql = "insert into subscribe (email, password, add_date, sub_id) values(\"$email\", \"$password\", \"$ add_date\", \"\")"; @mysql_query($sql) or die ("Couldn't insert email."); $text_block = " <p><h1><center><font color=green>Thanks for Joining </h1></center></font></p> "; } else { // if $check_num is not 0, then the user is // already subscribed, and let them know it. $text_block = " <p><font color=green><b>You are a recognized member of the database. Please enjoy yourself. If you need anything, please e-Mail us at <a href=\"mailto:.com\">info@.com</a> Thank you!</b></font></p> "; } } else if (($op == "ds") && ($action == "unsub")) { // check they're already subscribed, // then unsubscribe them or return message. $check = "select email from subscribe where email = \"$email\""; $check_result = mysql_query($check) or die("Can't execute check e-mail address."); $check_num = mysql_num_rows($check_result); if ($check_num == 0) { // if $check_num is 0, then no match is found, // and the user cannot be unsubscribed $text_block = " <p><font color=red><b>Couldn't find your e-mail / user name on the list.</b></font></p> <p><i>You haven't been unsubscribed because the e-Mail you entered is not in the database.</i>"; } else { // if $check_num is not 0, then the user is on the list, so can be unsubscribed. $sql = "delete from subscribe where email = \"$email\""; @mysql_query($sql) or die ("Couldn't delete email."); $text_block = " <p><font color=black><b> You are unsubscribed from the Database!<i> Hope to see you back soon!</i></b></font></p> "; } } ?> <html> <head> <title>Form: Join the Database / username - password</title> </head> <body> <h2><font color=red><center>Input your e-Mail and password to enter.</font><br><font color=blue> Use this Form to Subscribe / Unsubscribe<br> to the <br> Database.</center></font></h2> <?php echo "$text_block"; ?> </body> </html> -- Marc S.
