I see a few things: 1. Pullit is not a word. :-) 2. http://registration.php is not a valid URL (until php becomes a TLD). 3. $_GET['$username'] refers to a variable named $username, not username. You should try $_GET['username'] instead. Hope that helps. Chris ===== My Blog http://shiflett.org/ HTTP Developer's Handbook http://httphandbook.org/ RAMP Training Courses http://www.nyphp.org/ramp
