// Includes the class which have the all functions
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
include_once("user.class.php");
/* Created object for User class*/
$web = new users();
/* This file return the sucess or failure with provided details ( username, password ) */
// USER NAME - user_name
// PASSWORD - password
if(isset($_REQUEST) && ($_REQUEST['user_name'] != "") && ($_REQUEST['password']!="") ){
$result = $web->login($_REQUEST['user_name'],$_REQUEST['password']);
echo json_encode(array('results'=>$result));
}
/* Provided output in the json encoded format */
// Call the database disconnection method
$web->connection_close();
?>
Call this method as
http://localhost/login.php?username=anil&password=123456
Output:
if correct {“result”:1} else {“result”:0}
