Hello,
I have 2 accounts and there is a field in mysql called validated it can be either "true" or "false"
Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
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,
