Brighteyes Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I am using the script straight from the download files from this site but when I register I get the error "Please re-enter your passwords and try again." Any ideas what is wrong here? <?php if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) { // Handle the form. require_once (MYSQL); // Trim all the incoming data: $trimmed = array_map('trim', $_POST); // Assume invalid values: $fn = $ln = $e = $p = FALSE; // Check for a first name: if (preg_match ('/^[A-Z \'.-]{2,20}$/i', $trimmed['first_name'])) { $fn = mysqli_real_escape_string ($dbc, $trimmed['first_name']); } else { echo '<p class="error">Please enter your first name!</p>'; } // Check for a last name: if (preg_match ('/^[A-Z \'.-]{2,40}$/i', $trimmed['last_name'])) { $ln = mysqli_real_escape_string ($dbc, $trimmed['last_name']); } else { echo '<p class="error">Please enter your last name!</p>'; } // Check for an email address: if (preg_match ('/^[\w.-]+@[\w.-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,6}$/', $trimmed['email'])) { $e = mysqli_real_escape_string ($dbc, $trimmed['email']); } else { echo '<p class="error">Please enter a valid email address!</p>'; } // Check for a password and match against the confirmed password: if (preg_match ('/^\w{4,20}$/', $trimmed['password1']) ) { if ($trimmed['password1'] == $trimmed['password2']) { $p = mysqli_real_escape_string ($dbc, $trimmed['password1']); } else { echo '<p class="error">Your password did not match the confirmed password!</p>'; } } else { echo '<p class="error">Please enter a valid password!</p>'; } if ($fn && $ln && $e && $p) { // If everything's OK... // Make sure the email address is available: $q = "SELECT user_id FROM users WHERE email='$e'"; $r = mysqli_query ($dbc, $q) or trigger_error("Query: $q\n<br />MySQL Error: " . mysqli_error($dbc)); if (mysqli_num_rows($r) == 0) { // Available. // Create the activation code: $a = md5(uniqid(rand(), true)); // Add the user to the database: $q = "INSERT INTO users (email, pass, first_name, last_name, active, registration_date) VALUES ('$e', SHA1('$p'), '$fn', '$ln', '$a', NOW() )"; $r = mysqli_query ($dbc, $q) or trigger_error("Query: $q\n<br />MySQL Error: " . mysqli_error($dbc)); if (mysqli_affected_rows($dbc) == 1) { // If it ran OK. // Send the email: $body = "Thank you for registering at <whatever site>. To activate your account, please click on this link:\n\n"; $body .= BASE_URL . 'activate.php?x=' . urlencode($e) . "&y=$a"; mail($trimmed['email'], 'Registration Confirmation', $body, 'From: admin@sitename.com'); // Finish the page: echo '<h3>Thank you for registering! A confirmation email has been sent to your address. Please click on the link in that email in order to activate your account.</h3>'; include ('includes/footer.html'); // Include the HTML footer. exit(); // Stop the page. } else { // If it did not run OK. echo '<p class="error">You could not be registered due to a system error. We apologize for any inconvenience.</p>'; } } else { // The email address is not available. echo '<p class="error">That email address has already been registered. If you have forgotten your password, use the link at right to have your password sent to you.</p>'; } } else { // If one of the data tests failed. echo '<p class="error">Please re-enter your passwords and try again.</p>'; } mysqli_close($dbc); } // End of the main Submit conditional. ?> And the form... <form action="register.php" method="post"> <fieldset> <p><b>First Name:</b> <input type="text" name="first_name" size="20" maxlength="20" value="<?php if (isset($trimmed['first_name'])) echo $trimmed['first_name']; ?>" /></p> <p><b>Last Name:</b> <input type="text" name="last_name" size="20" maxlength="40" value="<?php if (isset($trimmed['last_name'])) echo $trimmed['last_name']; ?>" /></p> <p><b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="email" size="30" maxlength="80" value="<?php if (isset($trimmed['email'])) echo $trimmed['email']; ?>" /> </p> <p><b>Password:</b> <input type="password" name="password1" size="20" maxlength="20" /> <small>Use only letters, numbers, and the underscore.

Brighteyes Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Just to let you know this is now fixed. It was due to me using a connect script different to that in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
