<?php
if($submit)
{
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root");
mysql_select_db("members",$db);
$user = "SELECT username,password FROM members WHERE username = '$username' AND password =
'$password'";
$result = mysql_query($user);
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0)
{
echo "Welcome $username";
}

{
echo "Sorry, please check you username and password!";
}
}

<form method="get" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF?>" target="body">
<h3>Username:</h3><input type="Text" name="username">
