Hi all,
On my userlogin.php I have used password_verify.
If the user logs in with matching details a session is started:
[php]
$rowdata = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
$firstName = $rowdata['firstName'];
$surname = $rowdata['surname'];
$securepassword = $rowdata['password'];
$username = $rowdata['userName'];
if(password_verify($password, $securepassword))
{
//start session
session_start();
$_SESSION[‘firstName’] = $firstName;
$_SESSION[‘surname’] = $surname;
$_SESSION[‘username’] = $username;
header(“Location: account.php”);
}
else
{
//redirect back to login form if not authorised
echo ‘Invalid username or password.’;
header(“refresh:5; url=login.html”);
exit;
}
[/php]
The code on my account.php page is:
[php]
// At the top -
// In the footer-
<?php echo $_SESSION['firstName']; ?>[/php]
I don’t get any errors but it doesn’t echo the first name either.
Any help would be a help!
Thanks,
Jack
