@NogDogFeb 01.2014 — #$_POST['Username'] won't be set when you initially access the page, only when you actually submit the form. So if you are going to do it as a single script, then you need to wrap the code that does the test of the username in an IF block that tests whether the form field exists (either with isset() or !empty()).
Small issue
Hello guys,
I tried to make a simple login script that prints “Welcome to duty admin” if the username that the user typed is “admin”. Otherwise, the message would be “Unauthorized”. Nonetheless, I can’t figure out why it gives me an error when I first run the script.
This is the code:
[code=html]<html>
<head>
<title>A BASIC HTML FORM</title>
<?PHP
$user = $_POST[‘Username’];
if ($user == “admin”) {
print (“Welcome to duty admin”);
}
else {
print(“You are not allowed here”);
}
?>
</head>
<body>
<FORM NAME =”form1″ METHOD =”Post” ACTION = “basicForm.php”>
<input type=”Text” name=”Username” value=”Username”>
<input type=”Submit” name=”Submit1″ value=”Login”>
</FORM>
</body>
</html>
The error:
Notice: Undefined index: Username in C:wampwwwbasicForm.php on line 5
Call Stack
# Time Memory Function Location
1 0.0000 139824 {main}( ) ..basicForm.php:0
P.S: It also says “Unauthorized” at the beginning even though I haven’t pressed the Login button.
Thanks!
