Eiolon Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You are telling $username is equal to what is being sent through a form (via POST). You do not have a form in your code...

Pikachu2000 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 There's a space between <? and php. Remove it. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/224344-newbie-need-help-in-php-script-plz/#findComment-1159033 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberRobot Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 In addition to what was already suggested, is there a reason you're displaying this information in the <head> section of the page?

Maq Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 There's a space between and php. Remove it. Yes, there is a fatal error which in return shows a blank page. For temporary debugging you can add these 2 lines directly after your opening <?php tag to see the error: ini_set ("display_errors", "1"); error_reporting(E_ALL); (Please use tags) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/224344-newbie-need-help-in-php-script-plz/#findComment-1159036 Share on other sites More sharing options...
