UserSystem Problem

[Rockstar]

wait :S is that the only bit of code inside register.php ?

Wheres the whole php part that sends the username & password into a database.

obviously it would say wrong username/password if the username & password don't get storred...

Mmm i dunno Lol i just followed this http://forumnerds.com/showthread.php?t=5

This is suppoced to be your register.php :

<?php
require_once "dbconfig.php"; // include the database information
if(!isset($_POST['join'])){
echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"register.php\">
<label>Username</label><br/><input name=\"username\"/><br/>
<label>Password</label><br/><input name=\"password\" type=\"password\"/><br/>
<input type=\"submit\" name=\"join\" value=\"register\"/>
</form>";
}else{
$pass = sha1($_POST['password']);
$user = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (id, username, password) VALUES (NULL, '$user', '$pass')") or die("somthing went wrong during the registration. MySQL said: ".mysql_error());
echo "registration compleate you may now <a href=\"loginform.html\">login</a>.";
}
?>

That was my register.php
Still makes no diffrence

Make sure the database is actually receiving the login information (use the form, then check phpMyAdmin to see whether it inserted properly). If it did, that gives you a starting point.

You did set up your dbcongif.php did you ?

If the file's included into the script, he'd be getting errors if it was stuffing up (wrong credentials, script not where it should be etc).
