Re: Password change

if ($_POST['oldpw'] != $ir['userpass'])

might help if that's what you had in your script

-------------------------------------------------

this changes password on ours..

function pass_change()

{

global $ir,$c,$userid,$h;

print "<h3><u>Password Change</u></h3><form action='preferences.php?action=passchange2' method='post'>

Current Password: <input type='password' name='oldpw' />

New Password: <input type='password' name='newpw' />

Confirm: <input type='password' name='newpw2' />

<input type='submit' value='Change Password' /></form>

> Back";

}

function do_pass_change()

{

global $ir,$c,$userid,$h;

if($_POST['oldpw'] != $ir['userpass'])

{

print "The current password you entered was wrong.

> Back";

}

else if($_POST['newpw'] !== $_POST['newpw2'])

{

print "The new passwords you entered did not match!

> Back";

}

else

{

mysql_query("UPDATE users SET userpass='{$_POST['newpw']}' WHERE userid=$userid");

print "Password changed!

> Back";

}

Re: Password change

No it's not that i just missed out a ' because i didn't copy and paste it. It's the md5 bit i need to know.
