wouldnt it be

md5("som3_admin",$username)setcookie($password$_POST$username$_POST);

im not sure what your doing here

$password$_POST$username$_POST

wouldnt it be

md5("som3_admin",$username)setcookie($password$_POST$username$_POST);

im not sure what your doing here

$password$_POST$username$_POST

WEll i have edited it now it is giving me

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING

I am not good in terms of PHP :( .. as far i know it is a call function .. but it seems to be wrong

first i need to know what you are doing here

$password$_POST$username$_POST

second i think that you need to read up on the setcookie in php.

http://php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php

the set cookie needs to have this

setcookie("name", "value", "expire")

also your line of code proably has the problem that inside of the setcookie() you dont have the values wrapped in "". like you have in the md5("som3_admin")

should i post all the code here ?? so that you can see ..

and i said i \ain't know php .. i have files which i am testing and these error i am getting

it wouldn't hurt to post code here.

all code is just messed up :(

yes i can see that there are A LOT of problems with this.

Did you code this?

first why do you have multiple headers?
- the headers you have are to redirect the page to somewhere else. so the below code never gets executed

you have echos in echos.

you are echoing out your query strings not executing them

I dont think that you have a proper understanding of what md5 actually does or even setcookie.

your long hex code only reads out this. <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

why are you returning 1 at the bottom

you dont need all those \n

now i have cleaned up the code a little bit but i didnt really fix anything. If i did there really wouldnt be a learning process here.

<?php
header("Location:index.php");

md5("som3_admin",$username);
setcookie($password$_POST$username$_POST);

$_COOKIE;

yes it is a part of a script which i have

i ain't know PHP language :( for sure , i haven't coded it.

thanks itisnot_me , at least you are helping me out .

I ran while updating the latest code you sent

it point out the error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE on LINE 5 that is :-

setcookie($password$_POST$username$_POST);

thnx

ok so it looks like you are trying to md5 hash the username and the password then set a cookie for it. if i am correct then you would need to do it this way

$encryptusername = md5($username);
$encryptpassword = md5($password);
setcookie("usernamecookie", $encryptusername);
setcookie("passwordcookie", $encryptpassword);

now im not an expert at cookies. i use sessions. but from what i read from the php manual that is the right way to do a cookie.

I would seriously start reading beginner tuts or get a book. Maybe php for dummies. Not saying you are lol

here is a tut for cookies http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/an-introduction-to-cookies/

and you can start learning php here http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp

To which code should i replace it ??

well i also think i should start reading PHP .. and i think i am now ;) lol

thnx

replace this with it

header("Location:index.php");

md5("som3_admin",$username);setcookie($password$_POST$username$_POST);
md5("som3_pass",$password)()setcookie;
header("Location:index.php");
$_COOKIE;
$_COOKIE;
header("Location:index.php");
header("Location:install.php");

you dont need the headers.

Done .. now it is giving

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in Line 4

thnx
