very basic. should move to showcase

[Hammad]

Hmm...very useful for beginners like me in PHP. I actually learnt a lot from this, thanks!

[Pieman]

Pretty basic, also if you're passing stuff like passwords through a form, NEVER use get it's very unsafe. Use post instead.

Also, you're coding style is sloppy, it'll make your brain explode on big projects.

This is how I would code it:

<form name='password' action="test1.php?" method="post">
Password: <input type="text" name="pass"><br />
<input type="submit" value="Go!">
<br /> </form>

<?php
$pass=$_POST['pass'];

if ($pass == "dark") {

      echo "Password Correct.";

}
?>

lol $_GET

[Hammad]

What's wrong with $_GET?

[foxx]

/page.php?pass=thisismypweveryonecankindaread

tis s mush betta, not like you need md5 when you're not saving it anywhere though.

$pass = md5(ahoj);
$post = md5($_POST['pass']);

if($pass == $post)
{
echo "ok";
}
else
{
echo "wrong password, you fail";
} 

[Monsta.]

Foxx123, what does "ahoj" equal?

[foxx]

it's czech hello .. hm and when I think about it, $pass = md5("ahoj");

[Daney]

Ahoj Foxx :)

Also, there are better ways of doing this, sessions etc. but good to learn the basics.

[Hammad]

/page.php?pass=thisismypweveryonecankindaread

tis s mush betta, not like you need md5 when you're not saving it anywhere though.

$pass = md5(ahoj);
$post = md5($_POST['pass']);

if($pass == $post)
{
echo "ok";
}
else
{
echo "wrong password, you fail";
} 

OK... but what's the

$pass = md5(ahoj); 

there for?

[foxx]

That's the password, md5() is a php function which makes it encoded.

[Hammad]

But it says the password is 'pass'?

[foxx]

nope, it says that the password is "ahoj",
in that guide he did

if ($pass == "dark") { 

where "dark" is the password, i've only "stored" that password in a variable..
in his guide it would be

$password = "dark";
if ($pass == $password) { 

[Hammad]

Aaah, I didn't see that.
