user validation always displaying invalid ? please help


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

Hello,

I have 2 accounts and there is a field in mysql called validated it can be either "true" or "false"

I tried writing a code so when the user logs in if the user is validated meaning
$username = $_POST['username'];
$validated = true
$validation = a mysql query that selects validated from members where username = $username

$validated == $validation

and I have to accounts made
1 account username is "google" its validation is set to false
2nd account username is "jaydesigns" its validation is set to true

but when I login both come up as not validated

here is the page code:

Code: <?

include_once"config.php";
$final_report = "Please complete all the fields below..";
if(isset($_POST['login'])){
$username= trim($_POST['username']);
$password = trim($_POST['password']);
if($username == NULL OR $password == NULL){
$final_report = "Please complete all the fields below..";
}else{
$check_user_data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `members` WHERE `username` = '$username'") or die(mysql_error());
if(mysql_num_rows($check_user_data) == 0){
$final_report = "This username does not exist..";
}else{
$get_user_data = mysql_fetch_array($check_user_data);
if($get_user_data['password'] == $password){

$start_idsess = $_SESSION['username'] = "".$get_user_data['username']."";
$start_passsess = $_SESSION['password'] = "".$get_user_data['password']."";
$validation = mysql_query("SELECT validated FROM `members` WHERE `username` = '$username'") or die(mysql_error());
$validated = "true";
if($validation == $validated) {

$final_report ="You are now logged in $start_idsess ";

} else {

$final_report ="Your account is not validated $start_idsess,
