Now I'm still new to PHP so bare with me if this is wrong. But don't you have to assign the "authenticate()" function to something as your returning the $username? I believe you need to assign it to a variable name that of which you are echo'ing on the very next line, as the function doesn't allow for global scope of your "$username" variable. [...] > authenticate(); // the script never returns from this line $username = authenticate(); > } >echo "user = $username"; [/...] The PHP Pros can correct me if I'm wrong now. I thought I'd take a shot at this one though. Thanks and HTH. Wolf
