Controlling an item through an admin account using php
I am new to php. I registered registration on the login page and too. So inside the admin, I wanted to get the member list and remove members that I don't want. So I took the code from the phonebook example code from http: // localhost / xamp and modified it as required. I can get items but cannot remove members. See the code below:
<?php
require_once('auth.php');
require_once('../config.php');
//Array to store validation errors
$errmsg_arr = array();
//Validation error flag
$errflag = false;
//Connect to mysql server
$link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
if(!$link) {
die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
}
//Select database
$db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
if(!$db) {
die("Unable to select database");
}
?>

I didn't edit it correctly and everything looks like it.
Please help me to remove it.
I didn't understand what. $ TEXT ['userlist-button1']., '". $ TEXT [' userlist-sure ']. I also want to enable an approved and rejected radio button in the table for each participant.
How can i do this?
Please if you can help me.
- This should be a POST via FORM, not an href (GET) link.
- $ TEXT is obviously an array containing the text you want to print.
- You need to replace
&member_1d
href with real and real me like&member_id
.
$ TEXT is an array containing all language strings for the selected language. You will find lines defined by unter / lang / yourlanguage.php
All in all, this is not a good example to start coding with IMO.
But I think your application can start working if you make sure there are language files and other included files available and you change this &
member_1d with & member_id
An example of a list of items with links to delete:
$query = mysql_query("SELECT member_id,firstname,lastname,login FROM members ORDER BY lastname");
if(mysql_num_row($query)!= 0){ //only continue if there are members in the database
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){ //loop through each row in the database
$member_id = $row['member_id'];
$firstname = $row['firstname'];
$lastname = $row['lastname'];
echo '<p>' . $firstname . ' - <a href="delete_member.php?id='$member_id'">' delete '</a></p>';
}
}
Simple script on delete_member.php to delete a member from the database.
if(isset($_GET['id'])){
$member_id = $_GET['id'];
$query = mysql_query("DELETE FROM members WHERE member_id='$member_id'");
echo '<p>This user was deleted from database</p>';
}
This code is basic to provide an example.
I would rather use a simple form and $ _POST for something like this instead of using $ _GET, which is very vulnerable on this instance.
After receiving the list of participants, use the form with an input field to enter the ID you want to remove.
