I got a log-in script going and I have it so it sets up a new session() when it logs the user in.
i have on my index.php a session_start() that stores $_SESSION['user_id'] = $row['user_id']; and $_SESSION['username'] = $row['username'].
then in my account.php I thought of doing the samething and add to my session more information so I did another db query and tried to created my $_SESSION variables to store the extra info I wanted to pull out.
My syntax is correct, and my SQL query is correct aswell.
include 'dbc.php';
page_protect();
session_start();
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT company_name FROM agent_company WHERE agent_id = '{$_SESSION['user_id']}'"));
if($row['company_name'])
{
$_SESSION['company_name'] = $row['company_name'];
exit;
}
as you can see I'm trying to pull the data by comparing that it will only pull that data that belongs to the user of the current session. I used my $_SESSION['user_id'] that was created in my index.php here.
Can I not pull session data on a new page with an existing session? or do I need to add ALL the information I want to use all in one swoop? then just access it later on when I need it...?
in my page_protect() function I have this
function page_protect() {
session_start();
//check for cookies
if(isset($_COOKIE['user_id']) && isset($_COOKIE['username'])){
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $_COOKIE['user_id'];
$_SESSION['username'] = $_COOKIE['username'];
}
if (!isset($_SESSION['user_id']))
{
header("Location: account.php");
}
The better these AI models get, the more this is going to happen. It's gonna turn into government versus government in regards to using proprietary and unavailable security research models to basically find flaws and vulnerabilities in other governments or companies systems. It's basically turning into a cybersecurity arms race.
This is actually a good thing. The better AI gets, the more restricted and expensive it's going to become, making it far less mainstream. This is good 👍
