Login Script

by **ms4sman** » Sat Sep 15, 2012 5:36 pm

Hello all, I have been working on a website which requires users to log in. I have been having nothing but fits with it. I used Kompozer to create the HTML code, and now I am entering the php code for logging in. When I use this code (ther is more to the page of course) i get this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in index.php on line 14 (line 14 is the line where the form begins)
All i have done is added the php code brackets at the beginning and end and it throws everything into a tizzy!
Again, I am a very new PHP user: please help me

Thanks!

Code: Select all: <?php <form method="post" action="login.php" name="login"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 255, 255);">Sign In</span><br> Email Address: <input name="email"><br> Password: <input name="password" type="password"><br> <input value="Login" name="login" type="submit"></form> ?>

You seem to be placing HTML code inside your PHP script. As a new PHP programmer, I have made similar errors. Here of some examples of how I have made this work.

echo 'HTML Code in here of any type';
echo 'You said your favorite color was' . $color . '. That is a nice color!';

Be sure to surround your HTML stuff with single quotes. The . concatenates the text to put them together like they are one string.

Thank you for your reply! Your reply definitely makes sense putting things into a print statement. I will try that and get back to you!

In this case, it's probably better to end your php code and then put in the html for your form, e.g.

Code: Select all: <?php some php code ?> some html code <?php some more php code ?>

I'm sorry, but I have been very busy lately and haven't had the time to work on this project much. I do still plan to try some things and get back to those who helped me without any sarcasm.

Separate php and html codes like this way.

<?php
//my php codes
echo 'hello world';
?>

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo 'inside html';?>
</body>
</html>
