easy peazy question

hi there, nice simple query here...

//check to see is passwords match
if($pasword1 != $password2) {
print "Passwords Do Not Match!";
exit;
}

even though the variables password1 and password2 match, it still prints the error message! Why?!

You could try:

if ($password1 === $password2) {
	//passwords match
}
else {
	exit("Passwords do not match!");
}

//or

if (strcmp($password1, $password2) == 0) {
	//passwords match
}
else {
	exit("Passwords do not match!");
}

you could also use trim() on the variables to ensure it isnt a whitespace problem.
