Forms Class Example: Adding Users

I wanted to create a class that really utilizes the Forms Class to it's maximum potential. The following example is how to add an employee to your website so that he may access it with employee privileges.

You'll first have to create the tables within your database. The following tables are used in this example:

• employees
• Stores the employee details
• id, first_name, last_name, location, street, street_two, zip, telephone, email, active, date_started, date_terminated
• users
• Stores the login information
• id, user_id, password, token, user_type, active
• locations
• Allows for multi-location support
• id, location, street_address, zip, phone, active
• user_types
• Lists the different user type privileges
• id, description

The code itself is pretty straight forward. Start with __construct() and follow main().

• The user will be presented with the form to enter employee details
• Checks will be administered to verify data accuracy
• User is inserted into employees and users tables
• Admin is redirected to edit details page to verify, change or add additional details.
