Convert to PHP5.3

Can someone convert this to php5.3
admin.php

Code:

---

<?php
session_start();
if(!session_is_registered('myPass')) {

        header("location:index.php");
}

?>

---

check.php

Code:

---

<?php
$myUsername=$_POST['myUsername'];
$myPass=$_POST['myPass'];

if ($myUsername==("Admin") & $myPass==("Pass") ) {

        session_register('myUsername');
        session_register('myPass');
        header("location:admin.php");

}
else echo 'Something went wrong';

?>

---

This is untested but should work.

php Code:

<?php 
session_start(); 
if (isset($_SESSION['myPass'])){ 
 header("Location: index.php");
}
?> 
<?php
$myUsername="";
$myPass="";
//convert the POST variables from the html to local variables
if (isset($_POST['myUsername'], $_POST['myPass'])){
$Admin = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['myUsername']);
$Pass = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['myPass']);
 header("Location: admin.php");
}else {
    echo 'Something went wrong';
 
}
?>

//convert the POST variables from the html to local variables
what?

and what's that $Admin = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['myUsername']);
I dont have mysql

Don't worry about that comment I was using the conditional statement from an old project of mine! You can remove the comment. Oh, the "mysql_real_escape_string()" can be removed. What are you using instead?

$_POST is an associative array which contains the key-value pairs of the data you submitted via your HTML form.

I think he meant to say that he is assigning the values from the $_POST array to variables.

mysql_real_escape_string() is a function that escapes special characters in a string , if you intended to store in database. In short, to prevent sql injection attacks. But that function is in the path of extinction. :) I mean, it is better to use PDO or mysqli than the mysql_* functions.

@NightWalker: in your code, the second starting tag of the second PHP code portion is incorrect. You used "$" instead of "?". Most probably a typo. :p

:wave:

Yes, that was a typo! Thanks for pointing it out. :) I have fixed the above code.

Doesn't work. I don't use any databases..

I have to say your request is a more than a little unusual. There is nothing in that code that explicitly ties it to a particular version of PHP, except for the use of session_register, which was deprecated (but still available) in 5.3 and removed in 5.4. Whether the code works or not is impossible for us to say based only on what appears to be two small snippets of what is presumably a larger system, so I don't understand what you wish for us to help you with.
