In looking at the PHP manual page for <comparison operators>, there is a subtle difference between the two.

!= is NOT EQUAL TO
!== is NOT IDENTICAL TO

In the case of your script, either should do what you want, I don't think that's your problem.

Shouldn't this

PHP Code:


			
if ($p == "general"){

be this

PHP Code:


			
if ($_GET['p'] == "general"){

Unless you've got register_globals on, or you define $p further up in your script, then $p hasn't been initialized and won't evaluate properly. I notice you have $_GET['s'] so I have reason to suspect this is your problem. Same thing with all your other values, change $username1 to $_POST['username1'], etc.
