form validation

Post by pbd2008 »

I have been trying to build a text based game for the web but I am having difficulties with the processing the login form. I thought it should send an authenticate error page then if any is false but if true it would redirect to the main.php where the actual game location would be. However, it is not working yet due to my lack of proper training. Can you help with from start to the finished product? I have no way to pay you yet, but I can add you as a developer giving full access after it is completed.

Your best bet if you are learning PHP, and server-side development in general for the first time would be to watch Hall's PHP MMO tutorial series. It walks you all through it ;)

Yeah, really any version should work but the latest is the best since it includes the latest releases of PHP as well. XAMPP can also work if you run into any troubles with WAMP you can't fix (although you should try to stick with WAMP since it is the web dev server used in the tutorials, but if you must change to another server, the tutorials are still usable). :cool:
