Common Login System

[nairaweb]

Hi WJ,

I am working on a new site(PHP Based).The site has different scripts under the same domain but in different folders (like xyz.com/a and xyz.com/b).Every Script has different functions and its own database and its own login page offcourse!
So,the question is:
Is there any way to implement a common login system so the user has to login at only one place?

Thanks in advance!

you means in different script same login details will work/? and users need to login once in any script and they will be able to access other script without login again?

The scripts store user/pass combinations in the database. You have to make them all use the same db, same table in the login script.

Yup,i am thinking to implement a common database for them now.

As the other dudes/dudettes have said it's possible but it's require a bit of trickery/time.

The easiest way to go about it (but not the best way) would be to keep them as they are but add a few lines on the register page which registers the user up to the other tables as well - so then you don't have to go through the entire script replacing all the table names / column names etc.
