I'm building an ecommerce website project and right at the start, I kept on having the same problem. For some reason that I don't know, it feels like session_star() is not working or not displaying. I already done so many approach the last thing I have done is copy a source code online made by packetcode on youtube. but no results is showing in my browsers
I was expecting that the results will show but even though I referenced alot of sourece code it's still doesn't work and I have no any idea.
heres the index.php file:
<?php
session_start();
include "db.php";
include "retrieve.php";
include "function.php";
include "logic.php";
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Exquisite</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container" id="main_cntr">
<div id="intro_cntr">
<div id="title_cntr">
<h2>Welcome to </h1>
<h1>Exquisite</h1>
</div>
<div id="paragraph_cntr">
<p>Here to provide an excellent support for your style!</p>
</div>
</div>
<?php if(empty($_SESSION['username'])){?>
<div class="container" id="form">
<div id="login_cntr">
<form method="POST">
<h2>Login</h2>
<label for="username">Username</label><br>
<input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Enter your Username"><br>
<label for="password">Password</label><br>
<input type="password" name="pass" placeholder="Enter your Password"><br>
<input type="submit" name="login" value="Login">
</form>
</div>
<?php }?>
<div id="signupOption_cntr">
<a href="signup(user).php">Create an Account</a>
<h4>or</h4>
<a href="login(admin).php">Login as Admin</a>
</div>
</div>
<?php if(!empty($_SESSION['username'])){?>
<div class="container">
<h1>Hello again<?php echo $_SESSION['username'];?></h1>
<form method="POST">
<button name="logout">Logout</button>
</form>
</div>
<?php }?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I also devided the codes as seen in packetcode's video.
here the database code:
<?php
$conn = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', '', 'exquisite') or die ("Cannot connect to the Database");
?>
heres the account retrieval code:
<?php
if(isset($_REQUEST['login'])){
$uname = $_REQUEST['username'];
$pword = $_REQUEST['pass'];
}
?>
here's the function to take data from the server:
<?php
function login($conn, $uname, $pword){
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `user_acc` WHERE `username` = '$uname'";
$query = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
return $query;
}
?>
and here's the code for validation:
<?php
if(isset($_REQUEST['login'])){
$result = login($conn, $uname, $pword);
foreach($result as $r){
$passw_check = password_verify($pword, $r['password']);
if($passw_check){
$_SESSION['username'] = $r['username'];
header("location: home.php");
}
}
}
if(isset($_REQUEST['logout'])){
session_destroy();
header("location: index.php");
exit();
}
?>
