php....again

Okay..... what up wid this...

My main file...

PHP:

<?php
 include("top.php"); 
 include("db_connect.php")?>
allor <br>

<?php
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM `users`';
$result = mysql_db_query($dbname,$sql,$connection) or
die("Error in query");
// with a while loop
// this loop will iterate as many times as there are records
while($myrow =  mysql_fetch_array($result))
{   
    $userrname =  $myrow["usrname"];
    $password  =  $myrow["pwd"]; 
    echo "$username   ...  $password <br>";       
}    
mysql_free_result($result);
?>

<?php include("bottom.php"); ?>


right, my top file has all sorts of funky layout stuff, and so does the bottom file. the dbconnect has.....

PHP:


<?php
function db_connect() {
$dbuser = "my user name ;)";
$dbpass = "no chance!";
$dbname = "wouldnt you like to know"
$dbhost = "localhost";

$connection = mysql_connect($dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname, $dbhost)

if(!$connection) {
  echo( "Unable to connect to the database");
  exit();
}

else {
  $connected_to_db = "Connected to Database";
}

}
?>


right... the table does exist, and it has an entry in it. it dies (i.e. it echos "error in query" ) and i cant figure out why

 

allor <br> I am guessing is something you put in there to make sure it proccesses after the includes?


$connection = mysql_connect($dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname, $dbhost)

Usually I do it...

$blah = mysql_connect("localhost", $luser, $passwd);

does mysql_select_db($dbname,$connection) or die("No DB found... f00l") Give you the error?

In $sql try having no `s' but instead just users

 

hmm, okay, i fout out why it wasnt getting the query (urr, yeah.... ) but now nothing comes out of my query. its got somthing to do with my while loop i think...

PHP:

while($myrow =  mysql_fetch_array($result))
{   
    $username =  $myrow["usrname"];
    $password  =  $myrow["pwd"]; 
    echo "$username   ...  $password <br>";       
}    


 

Is it usrname and pwd and not username and passwd? Just making sure

 

yep, im quite sure i got the names right
anything else you can see?

 

try echo $username . "blah" . $password;

EDIT: What was the prob in the first place?

 

the prob is that it gets past the includes, and then stops, and i dont know why. you can look at it if you like....

The while statement may an infinite loop... maybe that's it? didn't seem to load slowly so weird, did you make any changes to the code in the first page or is it the same?

 

hang on... this is the latest version of the bit thats causing the problems...

its not the loop, i got rid of it same problem..

PHP:

<?php
db_connect();
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM users';
$result = mysql_db_query($dbname,$sql,$connection) or
die("Error in query");

    $username =  $myrow["usrname"];
    $password  =  $myrow["pwd"]; 
   echo $username . "blah" . $password;     
  
mysql_free_result($result);
exit();


 

Yeah and you forgot to add

$myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)



Still nothing I'm guessing :/ I really gotta start working with MySQL again...

 

hah, yo right.....

but yeah, still nuthin..

 

try mysql_list_tables($dbname,$connection);

What are the results?

 

ah, i cracked it ! http://cgi.nicholaslidster.plus.com/hypostasis/list_users_and_passwords.php
now im just having a problem with the login script :cry:

 

Ive pinned it down to this if branch... what might be going wrong?

PHP:

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE usrname = '$loginuser'") or die("There was a problem in the query!");
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($sql);
$fetch_em = mysql_fetch_array($sql)

//Here is the naughty one!!
if($numrows != "0" & md5($loginpwd) == $fetch_em["pwd"]) 
{
echo "valid";
}
else {
echo "not valid";
}

 

BTW that thing you told me to do, gives me this :

Resource id #5

 

/me laughs insanley


A SEMI COLON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

runs around in circles..

carry on...

i dont get session variables....

PHP:

session_register("username");
session_register("password");

That declares the session variables username and password, but how do you actually SET them to somthing?

 

This solved since there is a new post or still going at it?

 

yes solved, i meant to say so but slipped mind.
uset cookies instead with the setcookie() function mmmm coo
