php linking

Hi there,
I have a simple php login script but need to change something slightly

Code:

$msg                = 'Password incorrect.';







<form action="" method="POST">

                        <p>

                          <input type="password" name="password" size="20">

                          &nbsp;

                          <input type="submit" value="Login">

                          <input type="hidden" name="sub" value="sub">

        </p>

  <div class=error><?=$msg?></div>

instead of displaying the password incorrect message i would like to send the user to a url with their whatever they put as the password on the end

eg. www.mysite.com/1.php?substring=XXXX

where XXXX is their input

could some explain how I could do that please

thanks a lot

You can use the function exec_header_redirect when the login is invalid but I suggest highly not to redirect with the password already input. Sending a password in plain text is not a good thing to do. Also some browsers have problems with forms that have blank as the action or no action.

thankyou for your answer but would you be able to show me how to use it? im new to this and I cant seem to make it work.

Do I do something like....

$msg = exec_header_redirect("www.mysite.com/1.php?substring=");

and also how do I add the incorrect password on the end?

thanks for your help.

exec_header_redirect is a function that does the redirect, I don't believe it returns anything.

PHP Code:


		
			
if() //invalid login
{
exec_header_redirect("1.php?substring=" . $password);
}

But like I said it is not good security wise to send the password in plain text or in any encryption that can easily be unencrypted.

ok thanks i'll give that a try.

ps. im not using this to create a secure login or anything, im just adapting a login script to fit my needs. There will be the proper vbulletin login after this.

Use the header() function.

exec_header_redirect() is a vBulletin function and will only work if its files are included.
