You to the rescue again. Thank you very much sir.

First off, I am using a hash.

$pass = md5($pass);

I did not paste it as part of my initial code.

Second, I created this custom script that I thought helps keep my code from sql injection attack:

</<pre lang="PHP">// this function is used to sanitize code against sql injection attack.
function ms_escape_string($data) {
        if ( !isset($data) or empty($data) ) return '';
        if ( is_numeric($data) ) return $data;

        $non_displayables = array(
            '/%0[0-8bcef]/',            // url encoded 00-08, 11, 12, 14, 15
            '/%1[0-9a-f]/',             // url encoded 16-31
            '/[\x00-\x08]/',            // 00-08
            '/\x0b/',                   // 11
            '/\x0c/',                   // 12
            '/[\x0e-\x1f]/'             // 14-31
        );
        foreach ( $non_displayables as $regex )
            $data = preg_replace( $regex, '', $data );
        $data = str_replace("'", "''", $data );
        return $data;
    }
pre>

However, I can change it to use parameterized query:

PHP
$strSQL = "SELECT u.empl_first, u.username, u.empl_first +' '+ empl_last as fullname, e.Department, e.UnitName, e.empnum FROM users u inner join Employee e on u.Employee_Id = e.EmpNum inner join tblTBA t on u.Employee_Id = t.Employee_Id WHERE USERNAME = ?
 and PASSWORD = ? ";
 $params = array($_POST["user"], $_POST["pass"]);
 $sqll = sqlsrv_query($con, $strSQL, $params);


Now, if I am on the right track on those two, could please be kind to help with the last part where I am trying to check whether username and / or password is correct and redirecting to appropriate page as described?

Thanks again for your help.
