Add code to enable passing of checkbox variable on login


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Ok, I have a login page, but want to add a checkbox that when checked and successful login is made it passes the checkbox value (checked = "Yes" to the next page) which then loads password reset page, if its false then it goes to the next page as normal.

Can I add the passing of the checkbox value inot the standard dreamweaver code somewhere:

<?php require_once('Connections/Connection1.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
}
?>
<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
}

$loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_GET['accesscheck'])) {
$_SESSION['PrevUrl'] = $_GET['accesscheck'];
}

if (isset($_POST['userName'])) {
$loginUsername=$_POST['userName'];
$password=$_POST['Password'];
$MM_fldUserAuthorization = "";
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "rbsselection.php";
$MM_redirectLoginFailed = "login.php?failed=incorrect";
$MM_redirecttoReferrer = false;
mysql_select_db($database_Connection1, $Connection1);

$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT userid, password FROM users WHERE userid=%s AND password=%s",
GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text"));

$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $Connection1) or die(mysql_error());
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
if ($loginFoundUser) {
$loginStrGroup = "";

//declare two session variables and assign them
$_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
$_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;

if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) {
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];
}
header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess );
}
else {
header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed );
}
}
?>

I have a simple working example of passing a checkbox variable from one page to the other:

Untitled-1.php
<form action="untitled.php" method="post">
Do you need wheelchair access?
<input type="checkbox" name="formWheelchair" value="Yes" />
<input type="submit" name="formSubmit" value="Submit" />
</form>

untitled.php<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Atkins - Audit &amp; Survey Selection</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['formWheelchair']) &&
$_POST['formWheelchair'] == 'Yes')
{
echo "Need wheelchair access.";
}
else
{
echo "Do not Need wheelchair access.";
}
?>
</body>
</html>

But as the login page calls the login form action function it ignores any code I have re the checkbox varaible and therefore does not pass it onto the next page (rbsselection.php)

Help much appreciated. Sorry for the long post....
