php session, value display dont work
523
I have made php session, and i have problems with how to display it.
Actually here's the whole code (but variables are in Slovenian language and its too much to change every one of it, so sorry about it).
My login.php file:
<?php
session_start();
if (!(isset($_SESSION['login']) && $_SESSION['login'] != '')) {
header ("Location: index1.php");
}
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){
$uname = $_POST['uporabnisko1'];
$pword = $_POST['geslo1'];
$_SESSION['uporabniskoime1'] = $_POST['uporabnisko1'];
$user_name = "root";
$pass_word = "";
$database = "spletnabaza";
$server = "127.0.0.1";
$db_handle = mysql_connect($server, $user_name, $pass_word);
$db_found = mysql_select_db($database, $db_handle);
if ($db_found) {
$SQL = "SELECT * FROM uporabnik WHERE uporabnisko = '$_POST[uporabnisko1]' AND geslo = '$_POST[geslo1]'";
$izpisImena ="SELECT '$ime' FROM uporabnik WHERE uporabnisko = '$_POST[uporabnisko1]' AND geslo = '$_POST[geslo1]'";
$_SESSION['imeuporabnika'] = $izpisImena;
$result = mysql_query($SQL);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($result) {
if ($num_rows > 0) {
session_start();
$_SESSION['login'] = "1";
header ("Location: Stranzaindexom.php");
}
else {
session_start();
$_SESSION['login'] = "";
header ("Location: index1.php");
}
}
else {
$errorMessage = "Napaka pri vpisu";
}
mysql_close($db_handle);
}
else {
$errorMessage = "Napaka pri vpisu";
}
}
?>
My signup.php file:
<?php
session_start();
if (!(isset($_SESSION['login']) && $_SESSION['login'] != '')) {
header ("Location: index1.php");
}
$uname = "";
$pword = "";
$errorMessage = "";
$num_rows = 0;
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){
$name1 = $_POST['ime'];
$surname = $_POST['priimek'];
$uname = $_POST['uporabnisko'];
$pword = $_POST['geslo'];
$_SESSION['geslo1'] = $_POST['geslo'];
$_SESSION['uporabniskoime'] = $_POST['uporabnisko'];
$uLength = strlen($uname);
$pLength = strlen($pword);
if ($uLength >= 3 && $uLength <= 20) {
$errorMessage = "";
}
else {
$errorMessage = $errorMessage . "Uporabniško ime mora biti dolgo od 3 do 20 znakov". "<BR>";
}
if ($pLength >= 3 && $pLength <= 16) {
$errorMessage = "";
}
else {
$errorMessage = $errorMessage . "Geslo mora biti dolgo od 3 do 20 znakov" . "<BR>";
}
if ($errorMessage == "") {
$user_name = "root";
$pass_word = "";
$database = "spletnabaza";
$server = "127.0.0.1";
$db_handle = mysql_connect($server, $user_name, $pass_word);
$db_found = mysql_select_db($database, $db_handle);
if ($db_found) {
$SQL = "SELECT * FROM uporabnik WHERE uporabnisko = $uname";
$result = mysql_query($SQL);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($num_rows > 0) {
$errorMessage = "To uporabnisko ime že obstaja!";
}
else {
$SQL = "INSERT INTO uporabnik (id, ime, priimek, uporabnisko, geslo) VALUES (NULL, '$_POST[ime]', '$_POST[priimek]', '$_POST[uporabnisko]', '$_POST[geslo]')";
$result = mysql_query($SQL);
mysql_close($db_handle);
session_start();
$_SESSION['login'] = "1";
header ("Location: ../index1.php");
}
}
else {
$errorMessage = "Database Not Found";
}
}
}
?>
And than my file in Stranzaindexom.php where i want to display the variables: At top:
<?php
session_start();
?>
In middle: Pozdravljen/-a:
<?php
echo $_SESSION['imeuporabnika'];
?>
And when i'm signed in my page with root i get printed:
Pozdravljen/-a: SELECT 'ime' FROM uporabnik WHERE uporabnisko= 'root' AND geslo= ''
Insted of Pozdravljen/-a, professor. (professor is the name of root username)
Did i miss something ?

Solution:
Before executing any of the above queries, check the user input ($_POST variables). This can be done easily with the
mysql_real_escape_stringfunction. You might also want to usestrip_tags()andtrim()functions. For example:The mysql_* functions are deprecated, I would recommend you to start using mysqli or, even better in my opinion, PDO. Also, your queries won't work, here is a working example:
Don't store any session before actually loggin in or registering. Do this after the user has succesfully registered or logged in. Also don't store any valuable variables like a password, just the user_id would be enough for you. You could easily check if a user is logged in:
Also, only connect to the DB once and use
session_start()once per script. Even prettier would be to do this in a file namedconfig.php. Then simply do this in the beginning of your scripts:There are more things, but this will give you a good start and enough to work on :-). Good luck.
