&& and || are mixed up ?? :S
PHP Code:
if ($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] !== "username" && $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] !== "password") {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="login"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo '<h2>Unauthorized!</h2>';
exit;
}
echo "you are now authenticated.";
the above code makes sense doesn't it? it really should work. 
but upon further testing with that code above i have come to the conclusion that it will instead of requiring BOTH the username and password. it will only require one or the other...
HOWEVER, using "||" instead of "&&" will cause it to work the way i had originally intended it to work (requiring both fields to match using "&&" instead of one or the other)
PHP Code:
if ($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] !== "username" || $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] !== "password") {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="login"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo '<h2>Unauthorized!</h2>';
exit;
}
echo "you are now authenticated.";
can anyone tell me why this may be?
could i have a small error in my code?
