2002-01-19 Thread Miles Thompson

I've got a typo near the bottom:
left(password('$cPasswordf),10)";
should be
left(password('$cPassword'),10)";

(Strange, the "f" is nowhere near " ' ")

Re: [PHP] password=password('$password') <----- ? help me... :P

2002-01-19 Thread Miles Thompson

Hawk,

Pardon me for not following this thread very closely, but I just played 
around at the MySQL console. The fields I have are cName c(20) and 
cPassword(10)

This executed OK
insert admin (cName, cPassword) values ('Deb', password('peaches'));

select cName, cPassword from admin;
returned
Deb : 041ae71715

select cName, cPassword from admin where cName = 'Deb' and cPassword = 
password('peaches');
returned
Empty Set (Uh Oh! -- Thought a bit ...)

select cName, cPassword from admin where cName = 'Deb' and cPassword = 
left(password('peaches'),10);
returned
Deb : 041ae71715

I've left the field names out just for convenience, but this leads me to 
two questions:

1. Password is the name of a function and you're using it as a field name. 
Can you confirm that MySQL isn't choking on that?

2. Could field length be the problem?

A query of this form works
select cName, cPassword from admin where cName = 'Deb' and cPassword = 
left(password('peaches'),10);
so in PHP this should work
$cName = 'Deb';
$cPassword = 'peaches';
$qry = "select cName, cPassword from admin where cName = '$cName' and 
cPassword = left(password('$cPasswordf),10)";
etc 

Have you echoed your query and what does it display?

I hope this is helpful - Miles

$query = "SELECT username,password FROM users WHERE username='$username'
AND

Betreff: [PHP] password=password('$password') <- ? help me... :P

I've been trying to get this to work for a while, and everyone says that
I
should use the same thing, but it doesn't work, can anyone tell me what
I'm
doing wrong?
from the form on the previous page I have the $username and $password
vars

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pswd);
mysql_select_db($db);
$query = "SELECT username,password FROM users WHERE username='$username'
AND
password=password('$password')";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);

the $query line is made up from what everyone has told me to write..
I tried to add a list($usarname, $pessword) = mysql_fetch_row($result);
and it returned "" .. but when I removed the "AND
password=password('$password')" part the list showed the username and
the
password in encrypted form
I don't know how this could help me in any way, but atleast it shows I
have
an encrypted password, but the problem is that the line everyone uses
doesn't work.. maybe I need to change some setting in mysql och php.ini
or
something? anyone have any idea?
I know I've asked this several times but it doesn't seem like I'm
understood
with my problem. Hope I will be now.

Hawk

the $query line is made up from what everyone has told me to write..

I don't know how this could help me in any way, but atleast it shows I have
