PHP User Registration Help Needed

Report · May 28, 2006

Hello,

I have a page user_registration.php that I've created in DW8 that has a web form prompting the user to create their profile to gain access to the site. The web form fields are user name, password, email address, and registration type.

The registration type is a list/menu that has 3 options. Based on the option chosen, I need the user's login credentials submitted to the MySQL database and for the user to be taken to the corresponding URL (ie. regpage1.php, regpage2.php or regpage3.php).

I'm a newbie to DW8 and PHP and need some assistance on how to accomplish this. Thanks, in advance, for your help.

Use the Log In User server behavior. Set "If login succeeds, go to" to
the page that requires the higher login credentials. Set "Restrict
access based on" to "Username, password, and access level".

On the page that requires the higher credentials, set "If access denied,
go to" to the page that requires the lower credentials.

Good Morning,

A follow up question related to the Log In User server behavior: Since I have 3 different registration types for which I user could register, would I create 3 separate Log In User server behaviors pointing to each of the 3 registration pages?

This is the parameter I used when identifiying which registration page the sales reps are to go.
salesrep_registration.php?<?php echo $row_Recordset1['UserGroup']; ?>=salesrep

Is this the correct approach? Thanks much for your help.
