I\'m currently working on a registration system and ran into some problem.
I\'ll start with pasting a simplified version of the code before:
session_start(
got bored. this is not for internet points.
new user created
";
}
}
else error('passwords did not match');
}
}
elseif ($action=='login_user') {
$verified = verify_credentials($mysqli,$user,$pass);
if ($verified) {
print "
user logged in
";
}
}
elseif ($action=='update_pass') {
$verified = verify_credentials($mysqli,$user,$pass);
$validpass = validate_password($pass);
if ($verified && $validpass && $pass!=$pass2) {
if (update_password($mysqli,$user,$pass,$pass2)) {
print "
new user created
";
}
}
else error('cannot update to same password');
}
$mysqli->close();
}
}
function error($message) {
print "
$message
";
}
function update_password($mysqli,$user,$pass,$pass2) {
$hash = password_hash($pass, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare('update user set password = ? where username = ?');
$stmt->bind_param('ss',$user,$hash);
$stmt->execute();
$msql_error = $mysqli->error;
$updated = !(empty($msql_error));
error($msql_error); // for debugging only
return $updated;
}
function make_new_user($mysqli,$user,$pass) {
$userid = false;
$hash = password_hash($pass, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare('insert into user (username,password) values (?,?)');
$stmt->bind_param('ss',$user,$hash);
$stmt->execute();
$msql_error = $mysqli->error;
if (empty($msql_error)) {
$userid = $mysqli->insert_id;
}
else error($msql_error); // for debugging only
return $userid;
}
// really, this should be done with javascript instantaneously
function validate_password($pass) {
$error = false;
if (strlen($pass) < 8) {
error('please enter a password with at least 8 characters');
}
elseif (!preg_match('`[A-Z]`', $pass)) {
error('please enter at least 1 capital letter');
}
else $error = true;
return $error;
}
function verify_credentials($mysqli,$user,$pass) {
$row = get_user_info($mysqli,$user);
$verified = false;
if ($row) {
if (password_verify($pass, $row['pass'])) {
$verified = true;
}
}
else error('username and password did not match');
return $verified;
}

$row = array();

from user
where username = ?');

$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($row['userid'],$row['user'],$row['pass']);
if (!$stmt->fetch()) $row = false;
$stmt->close();
return $row;
}
