Re: Parse error again..

Code:

If ($_POST[send] == "1"){ $Filename = $_POST[UserName]; If (file_exists($Filename)){ $handle = fopen($Filename, "r") or die("Error Reading"); $contents = @fread($handle,filesize($Filename)) or die("Error2"); fclose($handle); If ($contents == $_POST[Password]){ echo "</br>.Logged in"; }else{ echo "Invalid password"; } }else{ $handle = fopen($Filename, "w") or die ("Error writing"); $contents = @fwrite($handle,$_POST[Password]; fclose($handle); }

Also, what did you mean i am not closing my fwrite?
$contents = @fwrite($handle,$_POST[Password];
fclose($handle);

Re: Parse error again..

$contents = @fwrite($handle,$_POST[Password]); <<-- closing parenthesis

Re: Parse error again..

OB, can i ask one more:

PHP Code:

<html> <h3>Testing Site</h3> <form method = "POST" action = "<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" <input type = "hidden" name = "hidden" value = "1"/> <p>UserName<input type = "text" name = "UserName"/></p> <p>Password<input type = "text" name = "Password"/></p> </form> <body background="http://users.pandora.be/creeping_death/Babes/Anna%20Kournikova%2002.jpg> <?php If($_POST[hidden]=="1"){ $filename = $_POST[UserName.".html"] If(file_exists($filename)){ $handle = fopen($filename,"r") or die("Err1") $contents = @fread($handle,filesize($filename)) flcose($handle) }Else{ If($contents ==$_POST[Password]){ echo "Logged in" }Else{ echo "Invalid password" } echo "Username created!" $handle = fopen($filename,"w") or die("Err2") fwrite($handle,$_POST[Password]) } } ?>

Its giving me this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF in C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\PHP\Login Script\_debug_tmp.php on line 12

line 12= If(file_exists($filename)){

So i dont know whats wrong (whats new :lol: )

Re: Parse error again..

okay got everything almost working.

PHP Code:

<html> <h3>Testing Site</h3> <form method = "POST" action = "<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" <input type = "hidden" name = "send" value = "1"> <p>UserName<input type = "text" name = "UserName"/></p> <p>Password<input type = "text" name = "Password"/></p> <input type="submit" value ="Login" /> </form> <body background="http://users.pandora.be/creeping_death/Babes/Anna%20Kournikova%2002.jpg"> </body> <?php If($_POST[send]=="1"){ $filename = $_POST[UserName.".txt"]; If(file_exists($filename)){ $handle = fopen($filename,"r") or die("Err1"); $contents = @fread($handle,filesize($filename)); fclose($handle); }Else{ If($contents ==$_POST[Password]){ echo "Logged in"; }Else{ echo "Invalid password"; } echo "Username created!"; $handle = fopen($filename,"w") or die("Err2"); fwrite($handle,$_POST[Password]); fclose($handle); } } ?> </html>

I keep getting errors on this line: If($_POST[send]=="1"){
Notice: Use of undefined constant send - assumed 'send' in C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\PHP\Login Script\_debug_tmp.php on line 12 Notice: Undefined index: send in C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\PHP\Login Script\_debug_tmp.php on line 12

Re: Parse error again..

perhaps send needs to be a string...
I really thought that in that context.. and send being used that way... it will look for a constant variable.. which is not defined. and perhaps that's where the error goes...

I would use this.. instead of that.
If($_POST['send']=="1"){

or
If($_POST["send"]=="1"){

Re: Parse error again..

Okay thanks, but now this part is still there:

Notice: Undefined index: send in C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\PHP\Login Script\_debug_tmp.php on line 12

I dont understand that..Also, whats the difference between using [name] and ['name] and ["name"]

Re: Parse error again..

may I comment on this code fragment?

$filename = $_POST[UserName.".txt"];

are you sure about this one?.. this will definitely give you a very weird output.

i think the right one would be.

$filename = $_POST[UserName].".txt";

notice how the ".txt" is moved outside of the brackets?.... I think this is what you want.. 'cause I don't see you posting a value for.... someusername.txt

Re: Parse error again..

yes you are right, im still a beginner with php..just learning.

Thanks, but im still getting that dumb error^^

Re: Parse error again..

I think $_POST['send'] and $_POST["send"] is pretty much the same.. they delimit strings... now if you had posted a value like... send'ed your way of accessing the value would have be $_POST["send'ed"] and vice versa..

now for $_POST[send] I read at the dox.. and perhaps it is the right one.. but better ask the gurus for this one... that.. the send part here will be accessing a constant variable.. that is defined this way on the file or else where (just included it)...

define("send", "somesendvalue");

so the $_POST[send] in my example would actually be accessing like
$_POST["somesendvalue"]

well at least that is my understanding of... it. I do hope that someone could clear this up. :D

Re: Parse error again..

I guess my theory holds on the send... I think it is looking up a constant value... perhaps you could try to change all send variable that you want?
Jul 21st, 2005, 01:46 AM
oceanebelle

Re: Parse error again..

Just try to change all you $_POST statement... like the send, UserName, Password... enclosed in string delimiters(am I using the right term).. :) and see from there? :D

Still the same error on line 12 (index error)

ahh I see it now.. it IS definitely looking for a constant value send... ;) so my theory holds. :D

Re: Parse error again..

really? hmm.. weird..

Re: Parse error again..

Uhmmm I just noticed.. in your opening tag for FORM.. there is not closing > would that be alright?

perhaps the form did not get submitted or something. :(

Re: Parse error again..

Jul 21st, 2005, 01:58 AM
oceanebelle

Re: Parse error again..

I'm stumped as well. :(

I have a question though.. is it okey to have the FORM elements. outside of body... I mean.. all the input elements would not show up in the form right? :(
I always thougth that forms should be w/n or perhaps I always thougth wrong. :(

Re: Parse error again..

Re: Parse error again..

Jul 21st, 2005, 02:12 AM

Re: Parse error again..

sure! here it is...

I changed the file location.. so that I can just look at the c root and see if indeed the file got created.. and it did. ;)

PHP Code:

<html> <h3>Testing Site</h3> <form method = "POST" action = "<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>"> <input type = "hidden" name = "send" value = "1"> <p>UserName<input type = "text" name = "UserName"/></p> <p>Password<input type = "text" name = "Password"/></p> <input type="submit" value ="Login" /> </form> <body background="http://users.pandora.be/creeping_death/Babes/Anna%20Kournikova%2002.jpg"> </body> <?php If($_POST['send']=="1"){ $filename = "c:\\".$_POST['UserName'].".txt"; If(file_exists($filename)){ $handle = fopen($filename,"r") or die("Err1"); $contents = @fread($handle,filesize($filename)); fclose($handle); }Else{ If($contents ==$_POST['Password']){ echo "Logged in"; }Else{ echo "Invalid password"; } echo "Username created!"; $handle = fopen($filename,"w") or die("Err2"); fwrite($handle,$_POST['Password']); fclose($handle); } } ?> </html>

Re: Parse error again..

Oh!!!.. I did... I did added a the closing > for the opening tag... :) for it to work. :D

so now that code works for me. :D

I was right in assuming that the first code did not got submitted because the form tag was malformed. :D

Re: Parse error again..

Same error as before??
Notice: Undefined index: send in C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\PHP\Login Script\_debug_tmp.php on line 12

And also, if i run it differently (Im using php Designer 2005 IDE) the submit field doesnt remain on the first page

Re: Parse error again..

hmmm.. I wonder why... I edited it at notepad, pasted it on htdocs root.. then opened a browser.. pointed it to the page.. and it worked fine. :( perhaps php designer not refreshing or something.

Re: Parse error again..

I'm sorry I can't do nothing more than that... it is working well here :(

in fact.. it even works fine without them string delimiters. :(

Re: Parse error again..

Well, it works in xampp but not this ide..Guess i should get a better IDE.

Also, im getting this error when creating password and stuff on line 25
$handle = fopen($filename,"w") or die("Err2");
Warning: fopen(|2eM!x.txt): failed to open stream: Invalid argument in C:\PHP\xampp\htdocs\xampp\newform.php on line 25
Err2

Re: Parse error again..

Perhaps... the file name shouldn't have invalid characters like..| or ! ???
Jul 21st, 2005, 02:52 AM
oceanebelle

Re: Parse error again..

why can't you give it a simpler name??? it worked fine here. :( lol my names are like 1 and 2.. so that would be 1.txt and 2.txt... it was generated.

and go get a better IDE. ;)
