Can different users login to the same website simultaneously on one computer?
I want to have several people be able to be logged into their Yahoo/Facebook/Google accounts without having to switch users (on WinXP) or browsers, though switching tabs or browser windows is fine… Something like Firefox storing its cookies for each tab (or specified tabs) in a different place.
Firefox’s privacy mode won’t work because I need 3+ sessions and want access to them all simultaneously.
admin answers:
You have to create different Windows XP user accounts and then log in using different Windows XP user names. Then its possible.
Using a new instance of a browser wont delete your old cookie, so you cannot log in as another user.

Php unique user login page?
I’m currently using the following script from www.zubrag.com to protect my php pages. Is there any way I can direct my users to a different page with different login names? I want people to be able to edit their account just like in yahoo, google, facebook etc… I would include the script but it’s too long, here’s where it’s located (you have to download it) http://www.zubrag.com/scripts/password-protect.php
admin answers:
You would have to modify the script to store the username in a cookie. It’s better to make something of your own then though, preferably using sessions (look them up in the PHP manual). Using the username you can make a page redirect.php that has (pseudo-code; will not be 100% correct, so it wont work out of the box)
if($_SESSION['username'] == “johndoe”)
header(“Location: johndoe_secret_df7ds6.php”);
else if($_SESSION['username'] == “otherguy”)
header(“Location: otherguy_secret_ghg598.php”);
There might be some other login scripts though that have a more complete admin system to it, with more features.. If you don’t want to code it yourself you’re probably better off trying to find something else that fits better.

Facebook Login impossible! help!?
I forgotten my password, so I clicked on the link that emails you a password reset code. I copied and pasted that code, and it tells me to type in a new password, after typing in every single word possible, it didn’t accept any of them, then it said I typed too many times, and to try a new password reset code. After repeating all the above process again, it came up with a new page, with the 3 options for ‘Identify your Account’.
I’ve tried EVERYTHING! 2 different e-mail addresses, a mobile number, my user name, my facebook account web address, several friends names, clicked on the link: ‘I can’t identify my account,’ filled in that form twice, just to get an automated email telling me to keep trying that Identify your Account page, clicked on the Contact Us link, after it kept saying ”Your password could not be reset. ■You have reached the limit of password reset attempts.” which leads to another webpage, which again tells me to continue with the Identify your Account page! I’ve gotten nowhere!!
admin answers:
Just wait for one more day again try the forget password option and you will be able to do it.

Lisa asks…
Can I use two different authentication methods for my new website?
I’m designing a new website that needs to have a user login mechanism. Is it possible to have two different options to log on, i.e. using the Facebook log-on system AND the Gmail log-on system?
admin answers:
Why not?
If ( /*gmail login API stuff here/* )
{ login(); }
else if ( /*facebook API stuff here/* )
{ login(); }
else {
gtfo();
}
If you’ve figured out how to use their APIs, then you should be able to use them both.
You’ll have to maintain your own mechanism to track loggedIn state though.

Graham i entered my user name and password only once in the original facebook page i was on my home page and my profile and everything was normal but when i tried to open the horoscops then i got the fake facebook page
thanks u both
admin answers:
If you are absolutley sure the website you are being redirected to is not Facebook or affiliated with Facebook, then more than likely this website was designed for phishing. If you did enter your email and password into this site, change it immediatley.
I can’t see what benefit phishing a Facebook could give…but you never know what information may be on there, so act now, just to be on the safe side.
Hope everything turns out ok.
