password script, 2 passwords.

[Crazydog]

So I have this script:

PHP Code:

<?
session_start();

$cmp_pass = md5("passtest");


if(!empty($_POST['pass']))
{
    $_SESSION['pass'] = md5($_POST['pass']);
}

if($_SESSION['pass']!=$cmp_pass)
{
    ?>

How would I make it so there could be two passwords that would work?

Maybe using array's if you want even more then 2 passwords:

PHP Code:

<?php
session_start();

$cmp_pass = array();
$cmp_pass[] = "password1";
$cmp_pass[] = "password2";
$cmp_pass[] = "password3";

//For every password md5 encrypt it.
foreach($cmp_pass as $key => $value) {
    $cmp_pass[$key]=md5($value)
}

//remove whitespace and then check for a password
if(!empty(trim($_POST['pass']))) {
    $_SESSION['pass'] = md5($_POST['pass']);
} else {
    die("No password given!");
}

//Is the correct password in the array?
if (!in_array($_SESSION['pass'], $cmp_pass) {
    die("Wrong password!");
} else {
    //do some stuff you'd like to do here ;)
}
?>

This also makes it easier if you are storing the passwords in a database

giving me an unexpected )

PHP Code:

foreach($cmp_pass as $key => $value) {
    $cmp_pass[$key]=md5($value)
}  //this one

PHP Code:

    $cmp_pass[$key]=md5($value); // <-- here

As well as:

if (!in_array($_SESSION['pass'], $cmp_pass) {

Need to close 'er up.
