PHPRunner General questions
jwoker author

I have a php/mysql website and my phprunner app will be called from mysite. I would like to pass the login information to myapp - something like - \phprunnerdir\login.php?username=$user&password=$pass . I have phprunner set to use a hardcoded login ($user and $pass). Can you help me with the modifications I need to make? I get kind of lost when I try and read through login.php on my own.
Also, I only have ssh access to my server so I use the phprunner.php to connect to mysql. When I build myapp and upload it - does myapp continue to use phprunner.php to connect to mysql database. If so, what do I need to change so that myapp does not have to rely on phprunner.php after it has been uploaded?
Thanks

Hi,
to pass username and password to login.php please do the following:

Open login.php in a text editor and replace all occurences of

$_POST with $_REQUEST.

Then you can use the following URL to get to your pages.

http://..../login.php?btnSubmit=Login&username=$user&password=$pass



where $user and $pass are your actual username and password.
phprunner.php file is used by PHPRunner wizard only.

You may delete it after you build the pages.
