have a table for users,consists of username and passwords.
the content of the table is like this
admin---adminpassword
user----userpassword
user2---user2password.
i have a login.php page then i want to redirect the admin to admin.php page when he/she logs in, and the rest user to user.php page.
so how can i do that.
html code for login.php
for checklogin.phpCode:<html>
<body>
<table width="300" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="checklogin.php">
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><strong>Member Login </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="78">Username</td>
<td width="6">:</td>
<td width="294"><input name="username" type="text" id="username"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password</td>
<td>:</td>
<td><input name="password" type="password" id="password"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table></body>
</html>
but this code redirect to login_successful.php, for both the user and the administrator. what if i want to redirect them to a different pages?Code:<?php
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="root"; // Mysql username
$password=""; // Mysql password
$db_name="test"; // Database name
$tbl_name="users"; // Table name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
// username and password sent from form
$username=$_POST['username'];
$password=md5($_POST['password']);
// To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection)
$username = stripslashes($username);
$password = stripslashes($password);
$username = mysql_real_escape_string($username);
$password = mysql_real_escape_string($password);
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username='$username' and password='$password'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
// Mysql_num_row is counting table row
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
// If result matched $username and $password, table row must be 1 row
if($count==1){
// Register $username, $password and redirect to file "login_success.php"
session_register("username");
session_register("password");
header("location:login_success.php");
}
else {
echo "Wrong Username or Password";
}
?>
thanks alot!
