This question already has an answer here:
I'm following the tutorial here to create a login page using MySQL. The code seemed to be working flawlessly when I left my computer 2 days ago. Now I come back to work on it, haven't changed anything, and I'm greeted with this warning:
Warning: Use of undefined constant php - assumed 'php' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in /filelocation/login.php on line 1
Line 1 in login.php literally says only this:
<?php
It also seems like this warning is breaking the form. When I hit the "login" button, nothing happens besides being redirected right back to the login page to try again.
Why would this be happening?
edit* As requested here is the fist couple lines of my code. Simply copy-pasted:
<?php
// Initialize the session
session_start();
// Check if the user is already logged in, if yes then redirect him to welcome page
if(isset($_SESSION["loggedin"]) && $_SESSION["loggedin"] === true){
header("location: welcome.php");
exit;
}
</div>
Well, I got something that seems to work. When uploading my file with filezilla, I am greeted with this Warning.
I decided to try a different FTP program to upload (NppFTP to be specific) and my problem went away. I still have no idea why this works though! Any body know why that might be an issue?
