Hello Everyone,
Thanks for taking your time to look at my post. I am having a problem with my PHP file which is giving me the following error whenever a header("Location: ") is used and the set_cookie function: Warning: Cannot modify header information and it always says the output was started on the first line, i'm really stuck becuase there is no whitespace either.
Here is my full file:
<?php
$user = $_COOKIE['userloggedin'];
$error = $_GET['error'];
$login = $_POST['login'];
if(isset($login)) {
$username = strip_tags($_POST['username']);
$password = strip_tags($_POST['password']);
if($username == "" and $password == "") {
header("Location: ?error=both");
}elseif($username == "") {
header("Location: ?error=username");
}elseif($password == "") {
header("Location: ?error=password");
}else{
include("includes/database.php");
$select = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password'");
$check = mysql_num_rows($select);
if($check == "0") {
header("Location: ?error=incorrect");
}else{
$fetch = mysql_fetch_array($select);
$username_new = $fetch['username'];
setcookie("userloggedin", $username_new);
header("Location: account.php");
exit;
}
}
}
if($user != "") {
header("Location: account.php");
exit;
}
$title = "Login";
require("templates/header.php");
?>
