BleepingComputer.com: Creating A Log-in Page With Xampp And Php

So do I type in the address bar:

localhost/name_of_file.php

Or should I open up the .html with the text fields?

That is what I just said to do.

this is great stuff, guys, thank so much for sharing! This is indeed a budding request that is coming along more and more, now that websites are going beyond just displaying info and needing to be able to do so much more to create interaction with clients.

hello,
great tutorial!! but I have a problem its gives me an error:

Notice: Undefined index: realname in C:\xampp\htdocs\password_test\process_form.php on line 8

Notice: Undefined index: mypassword in C:\xampp\htdocs\password_test\process_form.php on line 9
qwerty:123456
qwerty
123456
That is not the correct log-in information.

lines 8 and 9 I copy from tutorial:
$name = $_POST['realname'];
$pass = $_POST['mypassword'];

thanx!

I would have to see your code to help, and it should be in it's own topic. I know the code works as is, so my guess is that you have a typo in your code perhaps?

Hi

I am newbie and tried everything but i am getting a plain page with the following for the initial instruction: http://localhost/password_test/

---------------
Index of /password_test

Parent Directory
index.php.txt
password.txt.txt
Apache/2.2.21 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/1.0.0e PHP/5.3.8 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.1 Server at localhost Port 80

Can someone tell me what is wrong??

Thank you
Laya

Again, we would have to actually see your code. The link you provided is to a file that is local to your system; we can't see it.

My guess is that perhaps you didn't save it as an html file.
