Note Submitter: tannernett@yahoo.com ---- Hey everyone im fresh to mysql and php and i am trying to learn how to create a username password system. i have already made the page to INSERT any desired username and password into the correct table and it works, but i have no idea how to check the DB and tell whether or not the password submitted matches the username. heres what i came up with by myself (it doesnt work) maybe one of you php gurus can help me out. -tanner <?php $link = mysql_connect("68.52.3.100", "client", "client") or die("Could not connect : " . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("bixlerfanclub") or die("Could not select database"); $sql = 'SELECT pword FROM members WHERE 1 AND uname LIKE "$name" LIMIT 0, 30'; $pass = mysql_query("SELECT pword FROM members") or die("Invalid query: " . mysql_error()); if ($password == $pass) { echo "<a href="myfile.html">click here</a>"; } else{ echo "Sorry but your password is invalid"; } mysql_close($link); ?>
