[phplib] blem with Auth / Registering new users From: Guenther Theilen (theilen <email protected>)

Hi,

I've got problems to get the Auth-Class to register a new user.
When I try to authenticate existing users, everything works fine.
There is a file login.php in which there will the main part take place
laterone (e.g. menu and permission handling) and I've got a file
called loginform.php which has got the formular and checks the user.
Now I've placed a link at the loginform.php pointing to register.php
and I wrote a file registerform.php with the formular to enter the
userdata.
The register.php starts with 

---
page_open (array(   "sess" => "Sess",
                    "auth" => "Register"));
---

At the local.inc the Register-Class look like this:

---
class Register extends Auth {
  var $classname      = "Register";
  var $lifetime       =  15;
  var $mode="reg";
  var $magic="something";
  var $database_class = "DB";
  var $database_table = "auth_user";
  
  function auth_registerform() {
    global $sess;
    global $_PHPLIB;
    include("path/to/registerform.php");   // it's the right path in my
                                           // loal.inc
  }
  
  function auth_doregister() {
    global $username, $password;
    $uid = md5(uniqid($this->magic));
    $this->db->query(sprintf("Insert ".
                             "        into %s ".
                             " (user_id, username, password, perms) ".
                             " VALUES ('$uid', '$username', '$password', 'user')",
                          $this->database_table,
                          addslashes($username),
                         addslashes($password)));

    while($this->db->next_record()) {
      $uid = $this->db->f("user_id");
      $this->auth["perm"] = $this->db->f("perms");
    }
    return $uid;
  }
}

Strangely this works if cookies are disabled at the browser.
If cookies are enabled I get the login-form instead of the
register-form when I click the register-link.

Anybody any hints?

tia.

Guenther
