Im currently working on a register part of a website and i have a rule set that a username between 5 and 12 characters plus a password must be entered. If a users details are within these parameters they are then brought to the login screen. Yet if I enter a users details that are correctly entered i still get the incorrect parameters error - why is this?
<?php
class Signup extends CI_Controller
{
function Signup()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('membership');
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view('shared/header');
$this->load->view('account/signuptitle');
$this->load->view('account/signupview');
$this->load->view('shared/footer');
}
function register()
{
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'required|min_length[5]|max_length[12]');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'required');
$username = $this->input->post('username');
$password = $this->input->post('password');
if( $this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('shared/header');
$this->load->view('account/signuptitle');
$this->load->view('account/signupview');
$this->load->view('shared/footer');
}
else if ($this->membership->usernameTaken($username)){
echo "name taken!";
}
else if ( $this->form_validation->run() == TRUE) {
echo "Name and password incorrect parameters!";
}
else if($this->membership->newUser($username, $password))
{
redirect('login');
}
}
