Muhammad Mohsen
Courses Plus Student 10,843 PointsEnable your error reporting, We need to see what kind of error was thrown.
Konrad Pilch
2,435 PointsHow do i do that? it doesnt show any errors , like blank. Or is there other way to write an error report?
Muhammad Mohsen
Courses Plus Student 10,843 PointsIn your global.php file add these lines:
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);
ini_set('display_errors',1);
error_reporting(-1);
Konrad Pilch

2,435 PointsWhen this piece of code disapears, it works : p the layout shows
else{
if($pass1 != $pass2){
$message = 'Your password fields do not match!';
}else{
//securing the data
$username = preg_replace("#[^0-9a-z]#i","",$username);
$fname = preg_replace("#[^0-9a-z]#i","",$fname);
$lname = preg_replace("#[^0-9a-z]#i","",$lname);
$pass1 = sha1($pass1);
$email = mysqli_real_escape_string($email);
//check for dublicates
$user_query = mysqli_query("SELECT username FROM members WHERE username='$username'LIMIT 1") or die("Could not chekc username");
$count_username = mysqli_num_rows($user_query);
$email_query = mysqli_query("SELECT email FROM members WHERE email='$email'LIMIT 1") or die("Could not chekc username");
$count_email = mysqli_num_rows($email_query);
if($count_username > 0){
$message = 'Your username is allready in use';
}else if($count_email > 0)(
$message = 'Your email is allready in use!';
)else{
//insert members
$ip_address = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$query = mysqli_query("INSERT INTO members (username,firstname,email,password,ip_address,sign_up_date)VALUES('$username','$fname','$lname','$email','$pass1',$ip_address',now())") or die("Could not isert your information");
$member_id = mysqli_insert_id();
mkdir("users/$member_id",0755);
$message = 'You have now been registered';
}
}
}
Basically it breaks to this code.
