I'm trying to write username and password to a new line in a txt file. The output should be something like this in the txt file. I know this is not very secure but its just for learning purposes
Sebastian password
John hfsjaijn
This is what i have so far
if(isset($_GET['register'])) //
{
$user = $_GET['username'];
$password=$_GET['password'];
$fh = fopen("file.txt","a+");
fwrite($fh,$user."\n"); //write to txtfile
fwrite($fh,$password."\n"); // write to txtfile
fclose($fh);
}
EDIT: Here's the solution for me:
if (isset($_POST['register'])) {
$user = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'].PHP_EOL;
$fh = fopen("file.txt","a+");
fwrite($fh,$user." ".$password); //write to txtfile
fclose($fh);
}
This question is related to
php
fwrite($handle, "<br>"."\r\n");
Add this under
$password = $_POST['password'].PHP_EOL;
this. .
You append a newline to both the username and the password, i.e. the output would be something like
Sebastian
password
John

use fwrite($fh,$user." ".$password."\n");
instead to have them both on one line.
Or use fputcsv() to write the data and fgetcsv()
to fetch it. This way you would at least avoid encoding problems like e.g. with $username='Charles, III';
...i.e. setting aside all the things that are wrong about storing plain passwords in plain files and using _GET for this type of operation (use _POST instead) ;-)
How about you store it like this? Maybe in username:password format, so
sebastion:password123
anotheruser:password321
Then you can use list($username,$password) = explode(':',file_get_contents('users.txt'));
to parse the data on your end.
