New Password set session value empty

Hi,

I am trying to follow this video
07_send_password.swf

I get about 1/4 of the way in the video to set the session value

Trigger: Send Pressed
Session Name: I click on lightning as it says > Security assist > random password > pick criteria for length of characters > click Ok >

and there is nothing in the code:EMPTY

and it won't let be processed.

In bindings window I have
+Session
+SecurityAssist
+WAATKForgotPWForm
+Server Variables


Thanks,
Ed

Hi

The phone call resolved that problem but there is another now. The solution was to manually insert that session first and then undo.

Directions if anyone needs it:

Go to user_EmailPW.php > bindings > Security Assist > Random Password > click on the tiny insert button on the bottom right of the binding window > now undo it by going to edit toolbar on top of DW > undo > now go back to follow the tutorial video again, for some reason Dreamweaver needed to be refreshed or something.

However, after completing the tutorial, I tried to open user_emailPW.php locally and I get this error

Warning: require_once(../WA_SecurityAssist/WA_RandomPassword.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

I checked and there is no WA_RandomPassword.php under the SA folder.

So was it supposed to be created?

Thanks
Ed

here is a copy of the WA_SecurityAssist/WA_RandomPassword.php file to add to your site to correct the error.

Hi,

Thanks, I placed those two files in my SA folder,

now I get a browser error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function WA_RandomPassword() in C:\wamp\www\mysite\user_EmailPW.php on line 5

and here is what line 5 says in user_EmailPW.php

$_SESSION["NewPW"] = "".WA_RandomPassword(7, true, true, true, "") ."";


This error occurs when I put in my email in the text field in user_EmailPW.php
even if I don't put in anything and just click send

I don't know if this makes a difference but in user_EmailPW.php my WA update record has an exclamation point.

thanks

everything looks corect, the only thing i can see that could pose a problem is the email form element does not include a value attribute:
change:
<input type="text" name="emailAddress" />

to:
<input type="text" name="emailAddress" value="" />
