I just finished building the first website in my life! Everything works fine in my MAMP/WAMP. So excited but when I am testing it in real environment today with hosting software C-Panel, but it turns out my login page doesn't work. The website does nothing when user submit the form where the user should be redirected to main.php.
My face turns from :) into :( just now. Below is my login.php, could anyone help to point out what might be the problem?
<?php if(!SESSION_id()) SESSION_start();?>
<html>
<head><title>login with your account</title></head>
<body>
<form action="login.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email">
<br>
<input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Log in" name="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
<?php
require ("connect.php");
//declair the variable
$email=@$_POST["email"];
$password=@$_POST["password"];
//encrypt the password
$psw_en=sha1($password);
if(isset($_POST["submit"])){
if($email || $password){
if($email){
if($password){
$sql="select * from users where email='$email'";
$result=mysqli_query($conn,$sql);
$check_rows=mysqli_num_rows($result);
if ($check_rows !=0){
while ($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)){
$db_email=$row["email"];
$db_psw_en=$row["password"];
$db_full_name=$row["full_name"];
$db_id=$row["user_id"];
$db_topics=$row["topics"];
$db_date_of_registration=$row["date_of_registration"];
$db_pic=$row["pic"];
}
if($email==$db_email&&$db_psw_en==$psw_en){
$_SESSION["id"] = $db_id;
$_SESSION["email"] = $email;
$_SESSION["full_name"] = $db_full_name;
$_SESSION["topics"] = $db_topics;
$_SESSION["date_of_registration"] = $db_date_of_registration;
$_SESSION["pic"] = $db_pic;
$_SESSION["password"] = $db_password;
header("Location: main.php");
}
else{
echo "password is wrong";
}
}
else {
echo "you are not registered,yet. Click here to <a href=\"register.php\">register</a>";
}
}
else{
echo "it looks like password is empty";
}
}
else{
echo "it looks like email is empty";
}
}
else{
echo "it looks like everything is empty";
}
}
?>
