[Chapter 9, Script 9.7, Password.Php Dup Password]

If I entered the same new password as the old password, an error occurred that didn't inform the user of this. The following code can be changed as needed. CU

 

I added the following code that checks for duplicate old and new passwords:

 

 

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Check to see if password the same

$q = "SELECT user_id FROM users WHERE (email='$e' AND pass=SHA1('$np') )";

$r = @mysqli_query($dbc, $q);

$num = @mysqli_num_rows($r);

if ($num == 1) {

//echo 'Not OK' . ' ' . $num; // for testing.

$errors[] = 'Your new password is the same as your old password.';

}

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

if (empty($errors)) { // If everything's OK.

[Stepping Through Php Code]

I can step through Javascript using Chrome or FireFox, but can't seem to find any way to do that with PHP.

 

Is it possible to step through PHP code?

 

Thanks.

[Ajax Worked Last Week, Now It Doesn'T]

The code is in the Xampp server on my machine. Isn't that supposed to work? If it doesn't, then Xammp is not working.

 

I am running the code from within NoteTab which calls the browser with the URL of the server.

Maybe that is how I shouldn't be doing it?

 

I'll try putting it on my web site and see how that works.

 

Thanks.

[Ajax Worked Last Week, Now It Doesn'T]

I used the Chapter 11 book code last week in Xampp after installing Xampp and it worked.

 

This week I tried it out and it didn't work.

 

I rebooted and removed IIS which was on my computer, but that didn't work either.

 

After doing a bit of debugging, it turned out that the Ajax status code was 0.

 

I changed the test.js code so that it worked with a status = 0 ( || (ajax.status == 0) ). And now it works again.

 

So what whould make the status code turn into 0 from last week?

 

Or, in other words, what makes the ajax status equal 0 to begin with?

 

Confusing...

 

Thanks.

[Ajax Chap 11 Code Not Working]

Thanks HartleySan, I installed Xampp and worked my way through some install errors, but got it to work.

 

I put the Ajax Test book code into the server and got it to work.

 

I have a question about this, however.

 

Do you guys edit your code outside Xampp and copy the code into it?

 

Or do you edit the code inside the Xampp server?

 

Thanks.

[Ajax Chap 11 Code Not Working]

I jumped to the Ajax chapter since I needed to understand it in some other projects.

 

I entered in the code from the book and I can't get it to work.

 

I tried the downloaded code from the book site, and that didn't work either.

 

Do I have to put this code in my web site or can I run it from my loacal PC?

 

Thanks.
