what happens when You Enter a Logging system?

Generally when you enter a Username & Passwords through a Form.they are considered as input from users and they are being travelled to Server side validation.validation is the important step in a Login system.First it checks and clean the input values to avoid injecting database.then they are appended through a Query statement and if the process gets success,You are redirected to another page.If the process fails it stands in same page.

here i provide You a Simple codings from PHP & MYSQL:

config.php:

<?php 
$mysql_hostname = "localhost";$mysql_user = "username of mysql account";$mysql_password = "password";$mysql_database = "your database name";$bd = mysql_connect($mysql_hostname, $mysql_user, $mysql_password) or die("Could not connect database");mysql_select_db($mysql_database, $bd) or die("Could not select database"); ?>

create config.php file and keep it in Your web server directory.


create a table in your database:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `login` (`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`username` varchar(500) NOT NULL,`password` varchar(500) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`)) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

Run sql query to generate the table.

create an index.php

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title>Login System</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Login Form</h1>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['msg']))
{
 $msg=$_GET['msg'];
 echo '<p><font color="red">';
 echo $msg;
 echo '</font></p>';
}
?>
<form action="verify.php" method=POST>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" placeholder="username"><br>
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" name="password" id="password"  placeholder="password"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
save this code as index.php file in same directory.

verify.php:

<?php

$username=$_POST['username'];
$password=$_POST['password'];

$query="select * from user where username='".$username."'";
$result=mysql_query($query);
$records=mysql_fetch_array($result);

if($records)
{
 if($password==$records['password'])
 {
  session_start();
  $_SESSION['username']=$records['username'];
  $_SESSION['userid']=$records['id'];
  header('Location: home.php');
 }
 else
 {
  $msg="Password Incorrect";
  header('Location: index.php?msg='.$msg);
 }
}
else
{
 $msg="Username Incorrect";
 header('Location: index.php?msg='.$msg);
}
?>

home.php:
<?php
if(session_start())
{
$username=$_SESSION['username'];
$userid=$_SESSION['userid'];

echo "You Are Logged IN -<b>".$username."</b> and your ID is -<b>".$userid."</b>";
?>
<a href="logout.php">Log out </a> <?php
}
else
{echo "Access Denied";
}
?>
logout.php:
<?php
if(session_destroy()){ echo "logged out successfully!"; }
?>
this provides you to access the home.php.

if user bypass the login! he will be noted as 
Access Denied.

thus tutorial gives you a start up for login system and You can see advanced logins like php self() using functions in my next post,which is reliable now as secured.
