Hey guys i am very new to this so i am sorry if there is just something completely stupid i am missing here. I have the following Sign Up Form. And in the URL http://www.rockaholics-cologne.de/root/signup.php?e=cataras@gmx.de i am trying to submit the value e. However, in all cases e is simply empty or undefined:
<?php
// Ajax calls this REGISTRATION code to execute
if(isset($_POST["u"])){
// CONNECT TO THE DATABASE
include_once("php_includes/db_conx.php");
// GATHER THE POSTED DATA INTO LOCAL VARIABLES
$u = preg_replace('#[^a-z0-9]#i', '', $_POST['u']);
$p = $_POST['p'];
$e = $_GET['e'];
echo "test";
echo "$e";
// GET USER IP ADDRESS
$ip = preg_replace('#[^0-9.]#', '', getenv('REMOTE_ADDR'));
// DUPLICATE DATA CHECKS FOR USERNAME AND EMAIL
$sql = "SELECT id FROM team WHERE username='$u' LIMIT 1";
$query = mysqli_query($db_conx, $sql);
$u_check = mysqli_num_rows($query);
// FORM DATA ERROR HANDLING
if($u == "" || $p == ""){
echo "The form submission is missing values.";
exit();
} else if ($u_check > 0){
echo "The username you entered is alreay taken";
exit();
} else if (strlen($u) < 3 || strlen($u) > 16) {
echo "Username must be between 3 and 16 characters";
exit();
} else if (is_numeric($u[0])) {
echo 'Username cannot begin with a number';
exit();
} else {
// END FORM DATA ERROR HANDLING
// Begin Insertion of data into the database
// Hash the password and apply your own mysterious unique salt
$cryptpass = crypt($p);
include_once ("php_includes/randStrGen.php");
$p_hash = randStrGen(20)."$cryptpass".randStrGen(20);
// Add user info into the database table for the main site table
$sql = "UPDATE team
SET username='$u',password='$p_hash',ip='$ip',signup=now(),lastlogin=now(),notecheck=now()
WHERE email='$e'";
$query = mysqli_query($db_conx, $sql);
$uid = mysqli_insert_id($db_conx);
// Create directory(folder) to hold each user's files(pics, MP3s, etc.)
if (!file_exists("user/$u")) {
mkdir("user/$u", 0755);
}
// Email the user their activation link
$to = "$e";
$from = "auto_responder@yoursitename.com";
$subject = 'Account Activation';
$message = '<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>yoursitename Message</title></head>

$headers = "From: $from\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
echo "signup_success";
exit();
}
exit();
}
?>
I do get new entries into the database when i fill out the form. But it does neither send me an email or UPDATE the database at the specified email. It simply updates all the entries with a blank email. The echo "$e" within the script also return nothing.
I used this code to check:
<?php
echo "<pre>";
print_r($_GET);
echo "</pre>";
$e = $_GET['e'];
echo "$e";
?>
And in this case it does return an array with [e]=cataras@gmx.de and it also prints out $e. But why doesnt it work in the other skript? I'm using the exact same methods to get e from the URL.
When i run my Javascript function:
function signup(){
var u = _("username").value;
var p1 = _("pass1").value;
var p2 = _("pass2").value;
var status = _("status");
if(u == "" || p1 == "" || p2 == ""){
status.innerHTML = "Fill out all of the form data";
} else if(p1 != p2){
status.innerHTML = "Your password fields do not match";
} else {
_("signupbtn").style.display = "none";
status.innerHTML = 'please wait ...';
var ajax = ajaxObj("POST", "signup.php");
ajax.onreadystatechange = function() {
if(ajaxReturn(ajax) == true) {
if(ajax.responseText.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, "") == "signup_success"){
status.innerHTML = ajax.responseText;
_("signupbtn").style.display = "block";
} else {
window.scrollTo(0,0);
_("signupform").innerHTML = "OK "+u+", check your email inbox and junk mail box at <u>"+e+"</u> in a moment to complete the sign up process by activating your account. You will not be able to do anything on the site until you successfully activate your account.";
}
}
}
ajax.send("u="+u+"&p="+p1);
}
}
I get Uncaught ReferenceError: e is not defined. And the site stops at "please wait...". I just took out the +e+ in the js to get to the php above. Sorry for the long post but i am really running out of ideas. THANKS in advance!!!
