Hello,
We are trying to move our php app to a different server. For some reason, when we type in the login/password/account number info and click submit, it does not seem to set the variables.
The webpage portion that collects the login/password/account looks like the following:
<tr>
<td><b>username:</b></td>
<td><input type="text" name="UserName"
value="<?php echo $UserName ?>" maxlength=8 class="form_style">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><b>password:</b></td>
<td><input type="password" name="Password" class="form_style"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"
align="center">
<font color='gray' size=1>Username and Password are case sensitive.</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center"><font color='red'><?php echo $status; ?></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="right">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value=" Login " style="font-weight:bold;">
</td>
</tr>
It looks like the value= line for user name puts the text the user types into in the $UserName variable (or is this setting a default value if $UserName exists?).
The password line does not have this. Either way, this setup works fine on the original server. At the top of the index.php page, it then has php code like the following:
<?php
setcookie ("ccp_logged_in");
setcookie ("ccp_username");
setcookie ("ccp_uid");
setcookie ("ccp_fname");
setcookie ("ccp_lname");
setcookie ("ccp_access");
setcookie ("ccp_company");
setcookie ("ccp_account");
setcookie ("ccp_maccount");
setcookie ("ccp_master");
//Get Global Variable Settings
require("internet/include/global.php");
/****************************************************************
**** Open a Database connection to the MySQL Database ****
****************************************************************/
if ($UserName != ""){
$link = mysql_connect($SERVERNAME, $DB_USER, $DB_PWD)
or die ("Could not Connect");
mysql_select_db ($DB)
(code continues on to validate user and then if approved, goes to another page called page2.php)
Note: The submit action is to go back to itself (index.php).
It never gets in here as if $UserName is not set (at least that is what I think is going on because if I put $UserName = someuser/$Password=password/$AccountNo=someacctno just before the if...then statement, it validates and moves on to page2.php). If I hardcode set these (which is not an option for use..just for troubleshooting), it goes to page2.php, with the cookies, which I checked with print_r option. However, it has a if ($ccs_logged_in = 1) check that fails, even though the print_r shows it is set to 1 as if it is not using the cookie. I am fairly new to php, so I do not know if I am supposed to capture the ccs_logged_in cookie value and assign it to $ccs_logged_in variable. I am not doing this because, well, it is working as such on the other server.
Can anybody please help me understand what is going on with these php pages?
