simple cms script

wont work

[htdawg]

Hi,
I downloaded that free "Simple Web Content Management System" script, installed it (correctly) but when I try to login it just redirects me back to the login page. anyone care to take a guess at why it does that or how to fix it? just wanted a simple cms to set up a little site.

Thanks

Well, a good guess could be that the script depends on cookies, and your cookies are disabled.

Or maybe it only works with register_globals on and you have them off?

htdawg, I can confirm that Habtom is correct. I downloaded the script you mentioned and checked the code; it is entirely unsafe to use, even with register_globals on. If register_globals was on, you could just visit /admin/?loggedin=1 and get in.

ok thank you guys for the quick replies. i guess I will try to find something else (safer) then!
Thanks again!
