I want to get the variable username = $_POST["username"] from process.php to be echoed to the second file (change.php), but it doesn't work. The error is "Undefined index: username in C:\xampp\htdocs\OOP\Class User\process.php on line 2" It's odd, because there is not much diffrence between change.php and home.php, and in home.php this works just fine. What am I doing wrong ?
process.php
<?php
$username = $_POST["username"];
$password = $_POST["password"];
$profileUser = "profiles/user/$username.txt";
$profileWorkman = "profiles/workman/$username.txt";
if ( isset ( $_REQUEST ["login"] ) && isset ( $_REQUEST ["username"] ) && isset ( $_REQUEST ["password"] ) ) {
if ( file_exists( $profileUser ) ) {
$fpUser = fopen( $profileUser, "a+" );
$accountUser = file_get_contents( $profileUser );
if ( strstr( $accountUser, $username ) && @strstr( $accountUser, $password ) ) {
require "home.php";
} else {
echo "<p>Incorrect Password</p>";
}
} else if ( file_exists( $profileWorkman ) ) {
$fpWorkman = fopen( $profileWorkman, "a+" );
$accountWorkman = file_get_contents( $profileWorkman );
if ( strstr( $accountWorkman, $username ) && @strstr( $accountWorkman, $password ) ) {
require "home.php";
} else {
require "index.html";
echo "<p>Incorrect Password</p>";
}
} else {
require "index.html";
echo "<p>Incorrect Username and/or Password</p>";
}
}
if ( isset ( $_POST ['register'] ) ) {
require 'register.html';
}
change.php
<?php
$username ["username"];
echo $username;
home.php
<html>
<head>
<title>Home</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/home.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$username = $_POST["username"];
echo "<p>Hello $username</p>";
?>
<a href="change.html" name="changeProfile">Change profile</a>
<form action="comments.php">
<textarea name="comment_box" cols="30" rows="10" placeholder="Write a comment..."></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="post_comment" value="Submit"/>
</form>
<h2>Comments:</h2>
