trq Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Your form posts to itself, not another page. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/159669-registration-form-problem-db-entry-empty-think-variable-passing-prob/#findComment-842130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Not to mention if you had it linked to the right page, you're trying to return the values like: $_POST[$username_pos] Which would equal to: $_POST[$_SESSION[$username]] Try instead, though baring in mind you should really secure your inputs, something like this: $_POST['username'] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/159669-registration-form-problem-db-entry-empty-think-variable-passing-prob/#findComment-842135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
