Questions & Answers

ok so when I open my URL is opened in my browser i am getting:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Connection timed out
Connected successfullyinsert into Users values (NULL, ‘Array’, ‘Array’ ‘Array’);

tho in unity I am getting this:
error 404 The requested URL was not found on this server.
(WWW) in the link doesn’t also seem to make a difrance

the link I am using is the same as the one in my browser.
I’ve spent the last 2 days trying to find an answer no threads i have found have presented an answer,
they all just go round in circles without explaining whats going on.
i don’t get why i am getting 404 when it loads in my browser.

Well, the reason is pretty obvious. The error is in those two lines:

WWW Login = new WWW (UserLoginURL + "Username" + Username + "Pass" + Pass + "Email" + Email);

and

WWW Register = new WWW (UserRegiesterURL + "Username" + Username + "Pass" + Pass + "Email" + Email);

Lets assume a user name of "Paul", a password of "1234" and an email "sample@url.com"

So your login URL would look like this:

"http://mysite.com/login.phpUsernamePaulPass1234Emailsample@url.com"

This makes no sense. If you want to pass “GET” parameters to a website you have to create a valid URL. It probably should look like this:

"http://mysite.com/login.php?Username=Paul&Pass=1234&Email=sample@url.com"

Though URL parameters might have to be encoded properly so they don’t mess up the URL structure. Certain characters (for example “/”, “&”, “=”, …) must not appear inside of a parameter itself and need to be escaped. For this you can use WWW.EscapeURL

So to construct the correct URL you would do

WWW Login = new WWW (UserLoginURL + "?Username=" + WWW.EscapeURL(Username) + "&Pass=" + WWW.EscapeURL(Pass) + "&Email=" + WWW.EscapeURL(Email));

Note that the case of the URL parameter usually matters. So “Username” is not the same as “username” or “UserName”. By convention most use only lowercase parameter names or “lowerCamelCase”.

If you’re not familiar with the URL syntax, look it up on wikipedia.
