I guess you have a form setup like so

<form action="" method="post">
Username: <input type="text" name="username" /><br />
Password: <input type="text" name="password" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" />
</form>

 

And an array of users

$authUsers = array ( 'Joe' => 'pass1',
                     'Sam' => 'pass2',
                     'Bob' => 'pass3'
                    );

 

To see of the entered username/password is valid you'd do

if(isset($_POST['username'], $_POST['password']))
{
    $user = $_POST['username'];
    $pass = $_POST['password'];
    
    if(isset($authUsers[$user]) && $authUsers[$user] == $pass)
    {
        echo '<h1>Success! You are a valid user</h1>';
    }
    else
    {
        echo 'Sorry but the username/password are incorrect';
    }  
}
