Login Script with PHP and SQLite

This repository contains a simple and secure login script implemented in PHP with an SQLite database for user authentication. The script offers features such as:

User registration: Users can create new accounts by providing a username, email, and password.
User login: Registered users can log in using their credentials to access their dashboard.
User dashboard: After logging in, users are redirected to their personalized dashboard where they can view their profile information and submit messages.
Message submission: Users can submit messages through a form on their dashboard.
Public messages: All users can view the public messages submitted by other users.
User messages: Users can view and manage their own messages, including editing and deleting them.

Requirements

• PHP 7.0 or higher
• SQLite3 extension enabled
• Web server (e.g., Apache, Nginx)
• Python 3.x (for running the database creation script)

Setup

• Clone the repository to your local machine.
• Run the cr_db.py script to create the SQLite database file.
• Configure your web server to serve the PHP files.
• Access the login page (index.php) in your browser and start using the script.

Usage

• Navigate to the login page (index.php).
• Enter your username/email and password.
• Click on the "Login" button.
• Upon successful authentication, you will be redirected to the dashboard page (dashboard.php).

Security

• Passwords are securely hashed using PHP's built-in password_hash() function before storing them in the database.
• User input is sanitized and validated to prevent SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
• Sessions are used to manage user authentication and maintain logged-in state.
