Hi Olaf-

Thanks for sharing your work!  I have implemented this class in my application, but I seem to be stuck on one small thing.  When a user registers, the confirmation message is sent and that works with no problem.

The problem is when the user follows the link and comes back to the login.php, the page is blank.  From my testing I can see that the account IS getting activated.  If I refresh the page, then the login.php page shows up fine, but displays the message"There is no account to activate."

Here is the code I am using to activate:
Code:
  if (isset($_GET['activate']) && isset($_GET['ident'])) {
$my_access->auto_activation = true;
$my_access->send_confirmation = true;
$my_access->activate_account($_GET['activate'], $_GET['ident']);
}

I have tried to force another page to load with
Code:
header('Location: index.php');
but no luck.

Funny thing I just tried while typing this in.  If I copy delete some characters from the validation string and then load that, the login page shows fine with the "Sorry, this activation key is not valid!" message.

It seems like this only fails for me when the activation is success.  Smiley

I have all of this loaded to my test server if you would like to have a look.  http://kram.crimsonenterprises.com Visit through proxy
Most of the links don't work yet, but you can try to register.

Thanks for having a look!

First off, WOW what a quick reply!!!

I removed that line and still get the same results.  I deleted the test account you created if you want to have a second look.

Here is my entire login.php file just in case that helps.  Most of it is taken directly from your example.
Code:
<?php 
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/classes/access_user/access_user_class.php"); 

$my_access = new Access_user;
$my_access->login_reader();
// $my_access->language = "de"; // use this selector to get messages in other languages
if (isset($_GET['activate']) && isset($_GET['ident'])) { // this two variables are required for activating/updating the account/password
 $my_access->auto_activation = true; // use this (true/false) to stop the automatic activation
 //$my_access->send_confirmation = true;
 $my_access->activate_account($_GET['activate'], $_GET['ident']); // the activation method
}
if (isset($_GET['validate']) && isset($_GET['id'])) { // this two variables are required for activating/updating the new e-mail address
 $my_access->validate_email($_GET['validate'], $_GET['id']); // the validation method 
}
if (isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
 $my_access->save_login = (isset($_POST['remember'])) ? $_POST['remember'] : "yes"; // use a cookie to remember the login
 $my_access->count_visit = true; // if this is true then the last visitdate is saved in the database
 $my_access->login_user($_POST['login'], $_POST['password']); // call the login method
} 
$error = $my_access->the_msg;

I'm wondering why you used this wrong row, thats not documented somewhere...

I can see why you would wonder that.  It was just a dumb mistake by me.  Embarrassed I read the code too quickly and thought that send_confirmation was something I could set.

I have made very few modifications to access_user class, only to add new fields to user registration.  Here is my activate_account function:
Code:
function activate_account($activate_key, $key_id) {
if ($activate_key != "" && strlen($activate_key) == 32 && $key_id > 0) {
$this->id = $key_id;
if ($this->check_user("active")) {
if ($this->auto_activation) {
$upd_sql = sprintf("UPDATE %s SET active = 'y' WHERE id = %s AND MD5(pw) = '%s'", $this->table_name, $key_id, $activate_key);
if (mysql_query($upd_sql)) {
if ($this->send_confirmation($key_id)) {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(18);
} else {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(14);
}
} else {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(19);
}
} else {
if ($this->send_mail($this->admin_mail, 40, 39)) {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(36);
} else {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(14);
}
}
} else {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(20);
}
} else {
$this->the_msg = $this->messages(21);
}
}

Reading your reply got me to thinking...
Shocked .o O (Wait a minute, why didn't I get a confirmation message back after account activation?)

This project is not one I work on every day.  I often go weeks at a time without touching it.  Anway, a few weeks ago I was working on this and was having problems with the send mail functions so I replaced them with send_smtp_mail.

In one line in the send_confirmation function I had an extra _ character, making the call to send__smtp_mail instead.  Embarrassed

I corrected my mistake and

I'm VERY sorry to have wasted your time and thanks for your prompt response.
