i am very new to php and right now i am trying to make a members only
part to my site. the login part of it doesn't work and i have been
trying to diplay a mysql error like this:
$result = mysqli_query($connection,$sql)
or
$message= mysql_error();
echo "$message<br>";
die( );
and of course it doesn't work. please point out what i'm doing wrong.
The 'or' method can only take a single statement after it. What PHP
'sees' is this...
$result = mysqli_query($connection,$sql) or $message= mysql_error();
echo "$message<br>";
die( );
...meaning that it always does the echo and die. What you want is this...
$result = mysqli_query($connection,$sql) or die(mysql_error().'<br/>');
Also, I think your use of mysqli_query is not quite correct.
another question is how would i do a password check. like most sites
where you login, they have a type password and a retype password box.
where would i put this is the form's processor to check the password?
i'm sorry that i have to send this to you people, but i need someone
more experienced to check this.
I'm not entirely clear what you mean. You generally only have to type
the password twice on signup, not at login. Assuming signup is what you
meant, you really need to do it twice - once in Javascript on the client
when the form is submitted and again in the PHP as soon as possible in
the script. There is no point processing the form if that basic
requirement has not been met.
Hope that helps.

Hi,
I have intalled the RC1 of Windows Vista (x64) and I'm running IIS7.
However, when I try to use extensions with php (e.g. php_mysql.dll) they
are not loaded and displayed when I do phpinfo().
I did the following steps:
1. Install Vista and IIS7
2. extract php (C:\inetpub\php)
3. configure IIS to run 32 Bit applications.
4. add handler to *.php - files (php5isapi.dll)
5. configure ISAPI-restrictions
6. add C:\inetpub\php to path
7. edit php.ini to load extensions in dir ./ext/, uncomment
extension=php_mysql.dll
8. restart IIS
What am I doing wrong?
(I also tried an x64-version of php and had the same problems)
tia,
Martin
