To be able to create a simple database driven PHP Log in,
first thing to do is
CREATE A DATABASE using your PhpMyadmin or anything that are applicable.
Name it
db. then create a table and name it
members having fieldnames such as
ID,
UserName and
Password. or simple copy the following:
-- phpMyAdmin SQL Dump
-- version 3.3.9
-- http://www.phpmyadmin.net
--
-- Host: localhost
-- Generation Time: Feb 02, 2011 at 06:54 PM
-- Server version: 5.5.8
-- PHP Version: 5.3.5
SET SQL_MODE="NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO";
/*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=@@COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
/*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 */;

-- Database: `db`
--
-- --------------------------------------------------------
-- Table structure for table `members`
--
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `members` (
`ID` int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`UserName` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
`Password` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`ID`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=6 ;
--
-- Dumping data for table `members`
--
INSERT INTO `members` (`ID`, `UserName`, `Password`) VALUES
(1, 'honey', 'a'),
(2, 'a', 'a'),
(3, 'kyte', 'joy'),
(4, 'hard', '123'),
(5, 'jenny', '123');

SECOND: Create the LOG IN script
Here's the code:
Header("Location:
Write the page where you want to redirect after logging in");
