Build a simple Php Application_Login

Is there any course on treehouse which will explain how to do a login form in php? Or there already exists? I believe a login form must exist for any e -commerce website.

Kind regards.

IS many courses i think. In php it is easy. in html you need put form with 2 fields (login, password) and send it to your controller , this controller send to model request is this user exist in your Data Base and if Yes U set session and redirect to main web after login, if not show the message.

You also have to hash passwords, protect against SQL insertion, and other hacks. Then you may want groups and approval prior to being accepted as a registered user.

I hope a course is coming soon that builds a user class that covers all of these topics.
