So, if I change that code to my email and password I would still only be able to log in as a user and not as an admin. How do I log in as an admin, Lar? I've gone over everything a million times but can't figure it out.

I need help, please. My database and tables and created. I can not login as administrator and I can't figure out how to. I can't view add or edit a quote because I am not the administrator. I have tried everything I know. I am showing that my cookies are created.

Ok, I can not log in on my own site? I have access premitted for user (myself) on go daddy data base? I can sign in under me@example.com password testpass. Here's my code: <?php /* This page lets people log into the site. */ // Set tow variable with default values: $loggedin = false; $error = false; //Check if the form has been submitted: if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { // Handle for form: if (!empty($_POST['email']) && !empty($_POST['password'])) { if ( (strtolower($_POST['email']) == 'me@example.com') && ($_POST['password'] == 'testpass') ) { // Correct! // Create the cookie setcookie('Sade', 'Adu', time()+3600); // Indicate they are logged in: $loggedin = true; }else{ // Incorrect! $error = 'The submitted email address and password do not match those on file!'; } }else{ // Forgot a field. $error = 'Please make sure you enter both an email address and a passoword!'; } } // Set the page title and include the header file: define('TITLE', 'Login'); include('template/header.html'); // Print an error if one exist if ($error) { print '<p class="error">' . $error . '</p>'; } // Indicate the user is logged in, or show the form: if ($loggedin) { print '<p>You are now logged in!</p>'; }else{ print '<h2>Login Form</h2> <form action="login.php" method="post"> <p><label>Email Address <input type="text" name="email" /></label></p> <p><label>Password<input type="password" name="password" /></label></p> <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Log In!" /></p></form>'; } include('template/footer.html'); // Need the footer ?>

...and then it worked. So this question doesn't actually count against me does it? Thanks Larry and I agree with the last guy...you are awesome!

Please help me Larry, I want to get this so bad so I can move on to databases. I have the same problem as the last person. I first tried the relative path, exactly in the book and that didn't work. So now I am trying the absolute path and it isn't working either. I am getting the same mssg as on 325. I am using PHP 5.4. Here's my code: $dir = 'home/kireaton/users/'; $file = 'home/kireaton/users/users.txt'; if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { // Handle the form. $problem = FALSE; // No problems so far. // Check for each value... if (empty($_POST['username'])) { $problem = TRUE; print '<p class="error">Please enter a user name!</p>'; } if (empty($_POST['password1'])) { $problem = TRUE; print '<p class="error">Please enter a password!</p>'; } if ($_POST['password1'] != $_POST['password2']) { $problem = TRUE; print '<p class="error">Your password did not match your confirmed password!</p>'; } if (!$problem) { // If there were not any problems if (is_writable($file)) { // If its writable then write it! // Create the data to vbe written: $subdir = time() . rand(0, 4596); $data = $_POST['username'] . "\t" . md5(trim($_POST['password1'])) . "\t" . $subdir . PHP_EOL; // Write the data: file_put_contents($file, $data, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX); // Create the directory mkdir ($dir. $subdir); // Print a mssg: print '<p>You are now registered!</p>'; }else{ print '<p class="error">You could not be registered due to a system error.</p>'; } }else{ // Forgot to enter a field print '<p class="error">Please try again.</p>'; } }else{ // Display the form ?> <form action="register.php" method="post"> <p>Username: <input type="text" name="username" size="20" /></p> <p>Password: <input type="password" name="password1" size="20" /></p> <p>ConfirmPassword: <input type="password" name="password2" size="20" /></p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Register" /> </form> <?php } ?> </body> </html>
