I have a form that gets data from the users, after keying in data, they're not being attained. I'm not sure where's the problem.
//Signup page
<h2>SignUp</h2>
<form class="signup-form" action="Cons/signup.conn.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="firstName" placeholder="Name">
<input type="password" name="userPassword" placeholder="Password">
<button type ="submit" name = "submit" >Sign Up</button>
</form>
after i key in the data, I get stuck on the first validation, which calls the "header("Location: ../signup.php?signup=Empty");"
//belongs to signup.conn.php ( where the process is done)
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
include_once 'dbh-conn.php';
$first = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['firstName']);
$pw = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['userPassword']);
// ERROR handlers
// Check for EMPTY Fields;
if (empty($first) || empty($pwd)) {
header("Location: ../signup.php?signup=Empty");
exit();
} else {
//does other validations
if
//Once everything is confirmed
} else {
// Hashing the password
$hashedPwd = password_hash($pw, PASSWORD_DEFAULT);
// insert Users into DB
$sql = "INSERT INTO users (user_firstName,user_userPassword)
VALUES ('$first','$hashedPwd');";
// ////////////////////////
mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
header("Location: ../signup.php?signup=success");
exit();
}
}
}
}
header("Location: ../signup.php");
exit();
}
?>
