is that part right?

are you trying to declare an array or what are you trying to do?!?!


EDIT: An array can be declared like:

$blah= Array(
blah => asd
,blah => asd
,blah => asd
);

to print it, the Array must be called.

what I am trying to do is in index.php (login page) the user enters their username and password into Array[username] and Array[password] using a standard html form.
from there they post it to login.php. (see my above code for index and login).
I am trying to set $username and $password to the data entered into the form.

does that make sense, or am I so far off that I am totally wasting my time.

thanks

yes trevor, that is right. you are putting the array variables into non-array variables so you can easily use them in the query.

are you sure you connect script is connecting?

connect.php works great.

I have it set to it outputs connection successful on the top of the screen whenever it connects. it connects fine on the index.php and register.php (or so it says)

does it matter if i write it:

$Array[username];
or
$Array["username"];

I've tried it both ways and it didn't work.

the other thought I had was that it was logging in and I was getting the failed.php error from my main.php page. So I made main.php show failed2.php, but it shows failed.php still so I know it is login.php

damn this is starting to annoy me.

i have set up 2 accounts on the table "users"

L: bob P: 123
and
L: fred P: 123

try it for yourself (it could be my comp):
http://209.167.16.165/ao/index.php

(if I get disconnected that ip is useless)

thanks for everyones help so far.
