Step by Step guide to connect login page with database using HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL


Problem statement:
 Design HTML pages for Registration/login and connect that pages with database also generate 
 several reports as per the application requirement in your project.
Objective:
 1. create login and registration page.
   1.1 when user enters username and password check either it is valid display the message login succesfull..or if not.
   1.2 if it is not valid store his information in database and make him valid and again perform the
         login if login successfull display the appropriate message login successfull.
Solution:
 A. First install XAMPP server on your machine as per the machine operating system and also
     download sublime Text editor. (Errors may be like this:>api-ms-win-crt-runtime-|1-1-0.dll
     reinstall)
 B. Start Apache and MySQL services.
 C. Go to browser and type localhost/phpmyadmin
 D. Create database eg:login after that Create table eg:users inside this database and insert
      one row value in it like testuser and password testuserpass.
 E. Create one folder inside C:/Program file/XAMPP --> htdoc ---> create your project folder like
      LoginProj
 F. inside this LoginProj folder store three files in it. 1.login.php 2. style.css  3.process.php
 G. Now inside login.php write the code of login form design with form action=process.php and
      method="POST"
 H. After that go to Browser and check either login form design is proper or not so for that type
      localhost/LoginProj/login.php.
 I. When we click on login button it take us to process.php page.
 J. Now go to style.css page and write all code neccessary for login form design.
 K. Now go to process.php page and write code
        //1.to get values passes from form in login.php file.
      <?php
         $username=$_POST['username']; //username must be id="username" value in login.php file
         $password=$_POST['password']; //password must be id="password" value in login.php file
       //2.to prevent mysql injection. Ref:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arqv2YVp_3E
         $username=stripcslashes($username);
         $password=stripcslashes($password);
         $username=mysql_real_escape_string($username);       
         $password=mysql_real_escape_string($password);
       //3.connect to the server and select database.
         mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
         mysql_select_db("login");
       //4.query the database for user.
        $result=mysql_query("select * from users where username = '$username' and password =
        '$password'") or die("Failed to query database" .mysql_error());
        $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
        if($row['username']==$username && $row['password']==$password)
       {
         echo "Login success!!! Welcome".$row['username'];
       }
       else
       {
         echo "Failed to login...";
       }
     ?>
 L. Now go to browser and type localhost/LoginProj/login.php. enter user and password and click on login button appropriate message gets displayed.
