I would check to make sure that the user has clicked the submit button before parsing this.

 

<?php
if(isset($_POST['register'])){
if(!empty($_POST['username']) && !empty($_POST['password']))
{
$username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
    $password = md5(mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']));
    $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']);

Since you are receving that specific error, something lmust be going wrong with your query. Try to debug it

 

$registerquery = mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (Username, Password, EmailAddress) VALUES('".$username."', '".$password."', '".$email."')") or die(mysql_error());
