Submitted by rinvizle on Friday, August 5, 2016 - 14:12.
This tutorial we will teach you on how to build a Secure Login and Registration system whereby users of your websites will be able to create their accounts, log in with their valid information so as to access their various accounts. Users information during sign up process are validated and stored in the database. The system validates new users for duplicate email addresses and performs valid authentication during registered users log in. And this is compose of PHP and MySql, this programs are written in a way that any one can understand and customize.

Sample Code

login.php - This is for the login activity of every users, and it has a script that gets a data in the database so the can user can login to their account.
  1. <?php
  3. include "database_connection.php";
  4.  
  5. if(isset($_POST["submitted"]) && $_POST["submitted"] == "yes")
  6. {
  7.         $user_email = trim(strip_tags($_POST['email']));
  8.         $user_password = trim(strip_tags($_POST['passwd']));
  9.         $encrypted_md5_password = md5($user_password);
  10.         $validate_user_information = mysql_query("select * from `signup_and_login_table` where `email` = '".mysql_real_escape_string($user_email)."' and `password` = '".mysql_real_escape_string($encrypted_md5_password)."'");
  11.        
  12.         if($user_email == "" || $user_password == "")
  13.         {
  14.                 $error = '<br><div class="info">Sorry, all fields are required to log into your account. Thanks.</div><br>';
  15.         }
  16.         elseif(mysql_num_rows($validate_user_information) == 1)
  17.         {
  18.                 $get_user_information = mysql_fetch_array($validate_user_information);
  19.                 $_SESSION["VALID_USER_ID"] = $user_email;
  20.                 $_SESSION["USER_FULLNAME"] = strip_tags($get_user_information["firstname"].'&nbsp;'.$get_user_information["lastname"]);
  21.                 header("location: index.php");
  22.         }
  23.         else
  24.         {
  25.                 $error = '<br><div class="info">Sorry, you have provided incorrect information. Please enter correct user information to proceed. Thanks.</div><br>';
  26.         }
  27. }
