[PHP] $_POST index issues

[James G Puckett]

I have run into a problem with some of my code surrounding $_POST.


Below are excepts:

Sending PHP script (login.php)

        <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="/verify_login.php">
        <B><I>Username</B></I>
        <INPUT NAME="username_given" SIZE="20">
        <B><I>Password</B></I>
        <INPUT NAME="password_given" TYPE="password" SIZE="20">
        <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Login">
        </FORM>

Receiving script (verify_login.php)


        foreach ($_POST as $key => $value ) {
                echo "<!-- $key ==> $value -->\n";
        }

        $db_connection = odbc_connect( $GLOBALS["db_dsn"],
$GLOBALS["db_username"], $GLOBALS["db_password"] );
        echo "<!-- username_given ==> $_POST['username_given'] -->\n";
        $query = "select username, active, password, clec_id from users
where USERNAME=\"$_POST['username_given']\"";


I get the following errors:

PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  'username_given' in
/var/www/e911.e-c-group.com/verify_login.php on line 19
PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  'username_given' in
/var/www/e911.e-c-group.com/verify_login.php on line 21

However, the for loop above produces the following output.

<!-- username_given ==> jpuckett -->
<!-- password_given ==> password -->


Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
