Here's the code and the defined variables too.
I've been trying to make it run for the past few hours already, and I just can't get past the area at line 32.
What do you think did I miss? I'm sorry, I am just starting to learn this so I might have missed some key structuring or something.
Thank you.
Code:
include_once('assets/inc/db_login.inc');
session_start();
function sql_entry($user,$pass,$phone,$points){
//do not touch anything beyond this part
$conn = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USERNAME,DB_PASSWORD,DB_NAME);
//error catcher for connection failure
if($conn->connect_error){
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');
//grabs the time
$time = date('H:i:s');
//$time = $time->format();
$date = date('Y-m-d');
//$date = $date->format();
//clean themmmmmm!
$clean_user = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $user);
$clean_pass = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $pass);
$clean_phone = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $phone);
$clean_points = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $points);
//prepare queries
$verification = "SELECT * FROM ".DB_TBL."WHERE phone =".$clean_phone;
$verification_result = mysqli_query($conn,$verification); //run query to validate user
$count = mysqli_num_rows($verification_result); //
//error catcher for non-existing username or wrong user/pass
if($count < 1){
$account_registration = "INSERT INTO ".DB_TBL." (username,password,register_date,phone,points,notes) VALUES ('$clean_user','$clean_pass','$date','$clean_phone','$clean_points','')";
$registration_result = mysqli_query($conn,$account_registration);
mysqli_close($conn);
return 1;
}
else
mysqli_close($conn);
return 0;
}
//here's the other variables for login (all are correct, i have triple checked them already countless times)
<?php
define ("DB_HOST", "127.0.0.1");
define ("DB_USERNAME", "root");
define ("DB_PASSWORD", "ragnarok");
define ("DB_NAME", "houseofvbi");
define ("DB_TBL", "users");
?>
