I have been trying to make a secure login for my site that I am developing.
I just cant get it to work, I use MySQL databases with PHP.
I can make the form to add the user and their info to the database but I can't seem to make it work with the login.
What type of encryption is used with HTML <input type="password">
?
How do I keep the User logged in throughout their visit to my site?
I how do I securely check if it is the right password that matches the username?
I have been doing PHP for maybe a year now, I just haven't learned this part yet so it would be nice to know.
