Well, once you grab the username you can do a simple mysql query.
PHP Code:
<?php
// connect
$connect = mysql_connect("host", "username", "password");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ‘database‘.‘users‘ WHERE ‘user-id‘ = $submittedID");
// Then check if a row was returned.
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
echo "User(s) Found!";
} else {
echo "Sorry, the user was not found.";
}
?>
Keep in mind this is an oversimplified chunk of code, but it should get you started. |
