Try this out, hope you got the point!

Code: PHP

<?
/*
**  Our text file's format is values separated by #
**  And example entry would look like this
**  pradeep#myPassword#Kolkata
*/

$TEXT_FILE = 'data.txt';
$aData = @file($TEXT_FILE); // collect all data into an array

// Dummy data
$user = 'pradeep';
$pwd = 'g4e';

foreach($aData as $v)
{
    list($u,$p,$c) = explode("#",$v); // split up the differnt parts of the data

    if($u == $user && $p == $pwd)
    {
        print "Matched";
        break;
    }
}

?>

Sample text file:

Code:

pradeep#g4e#Kolkata
shabbir#G4E#Kolkata
manindar#ABC#Mumbai

hi, again.
As i got this to work, things got more complicated, here

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$bData = @file("../admin/log_files/members_list.txt"); 

foreach($bData as $w){list($username1,$username2,$username3) = explode(":",$w);

$aData = @file("../admin/log_files/members_list.txt"); // collect all data into an array

foreach($aData as $v){list($username,$email,$time) = explode(":",$v); // split up the differnt parts of the data?

echo "<table><tr><td><font face=\"arial\" size=5><b>Last Modification:</b></td><td>$username</td></tr></font>";

echo "<tr><td><font face=\"arial\" size=5><b>Name:</b></td><td>$email</td></tr></font>";

echo "<tr><td><font face=\"arial\" size=5><b>Gender:</b></td><td>$time</td></tr></font></table>";}}

?>

Now I have two layers, I separated each username with # and the user data with :, and i want to ask if the "$username1,$username2,$username3..." part streches to infinity, what shall i put in?

Code: PHP

<?
// Simple just do this
$aUserList = explode("#",$v);
// This returns an array

Good script, got a question though, if we have multiple servers with various configurations in load balancing, and we try to maintain a session, that session will be lost when either round robin on next connection is in effect, so sessions is not an option due to persistence issues, and we don't want to enable persistence through the firewall, as it is not under our control. so we would need to rely on the cookie credentials for every page call to validate the user log in!
also, due to distributed database architecture, we can not maintain credentials in the database either. So we would need to take the cookie credentials and validate on every page. and pass other data via http header.

What is the modification to this script if sessions are not available, but still maintain security?
