Implementing User Functions

Changing Account Settings
The Account Settings button, when clicked, activates the account-settings action.The
code for this action is as follows:
case 'account-settings':
display_account_form(get_email(),
get_real_name(get_email()), get_mimetype(get_email()));
break;
As you can see, you reuse the display_account_form() function used to create the
account in the first place. However, this time you pass in the user’s current details, which
will be displayed in the form for easy editing.When the user clicks on the submit button
in this form, the store-account action is activated as discussed previously.
Changing Passwords
Clicking on the Change Password button activates the change-password action, which
triggers the following code:
case 'change-password':
display_password_form();
break;
The display_password_form() function (from the output_fns.php library) simply displays
a form for the user to change his password.This form is shown in Figure 30.9.

The display_password_form() function enables users to
change their passwords.
