Quick Authentication

Hi there!

Like Portal of Curiousity, i receive the same error message when using this script:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() ...
foreach($USER["user_data"] as $key=>$data){

Any idea why this error occurs?


By the way - when changing the foreach loop into a while loop, all works perfectly for me.

thanks

Then you're possibly using a PHP optimizer which does not match your current PHP version.

hmm nope, not that i know....

Are you using the most recent version of the script? That was a problem a long while ago, but fixed for some time.

Yes, it is the latest version.

I have really no idea why this error occurs :\
- But would there be any negative effect when i use the while loop instead of the foreach loop? (because, as mentioned, using the while loop seems to work for me)

what kind of while loop?

ups sorry - I just noticed that my while loop is nonsense - it does exactly nothing. (Deleting the foreach loop would have produced the same effect)

So to summarize - Using the original script works, but I still get the foreach() Error message.

*hmmm*

ok - i got the solution for my problem.

The problem was, that i had not specified any user_data (in the user profil) for these user-test-accounts, so the array was not filled up with data and put out this error message;

But if this is the reason, it seems that the script is a little bit buggy - Im quite sure that not every registered user is going to fill his additional user fields(?)

bw,

yeah, I guess it should check that. Odd that there is no data in there at all though.

Hmmm - Should the user_data field normally be filled with something, even though the user does not configure/insert anything? (neither a real name, nor a signature ...?)
