For example, i have 1 website.
Domain,com ( Index,php )
Domain,com/login,php ( login form )
Domain,com/home,php ( after login )
Script of Domain.com/login.php is like this
<form action="access,php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="username">
<input type="password" name="password">
<input type="button" value="submit"> </form>
In domain*com/home.php just display like this
Hello world
I want to curl Hello world, but I need to login first before I can access home.php and curl the page
If you login you have to save the data of the user in a SESSION. Look at this loginscript (your login.php):
<?php
session_start(); //start the SESSION to save the values
if(isset($_SESSION['username'])) { //If user already is logedin
header("Location: home.php");
}
if(isset($_GET['username'])) { //your submitted form
$username = $_GET['username'];
$passwort = $_GET['passwort'];
$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=yourhost;dbname=databasename', 'username', 'password');
$statement = $pdo->prepare("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = :username");
$result = $statement->execute(array('username' => $username));
$user = $statement->fetch();
//Check Password
if ($user !== false && password_verify($passwort, $user['passwort'])) {
$_SESSION['username'] = $user['username'];
header("Location: home.php"); //Go to home.php
}
}
?>

Now you are directed to your home.php. Just check there if the SESSION has the right value:
<?php
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION['username'])) { //If user isnt logedin
header("Location: login.php"); //return to login. You can also change the command to what you like to do it
}
?>
