[Resolved] Log In script (very basic)

[FloggThatMolly]

Hey, as you can probably tell I am very new to PHP... I am trying to create a simple log in script (that i will make more secure and actually go somewhere later). My problem is that no matter what information you place in the log in box... it authorizes the person....

<?php
function report_error($file, $line, $message) {
	echo "An error occured in $file on line $line: $message.";
}

report_error(__FILE__,__LINE__, "something went wrong!");


$user = $_POST['username']; 
$pass = $_POST['password']; 

$auser = Admin;
$apass = Password;

if ($user = $auser) {

if ($pass = $apass) {
	print "log on successful";
	echo "you entered $pass";
} else {
print "hey $user, you entered the wrong password";
}


} else {
	print "dammit get lost";

}

  ?>

<?php
function report_error($file, $line, $message) {
    echo "An error occured in $file on line $line: $message.";
}

report_error(__FILE__,__LINE__, "something went wrong!");


$user = $_POST['username']; 
$pass = $_POST['password']; 

$auser = 'Admin';   // <<< ERROR - unless these are defined constants, so put quotes around them
$apass = 'Password';

if ($user == $auser) // <<< ERROR , need double equals
{

if ($pass == $apass) // <<< ERROR - again double == needed
   {
        print "log on successful";
        echo "you entered $pass";
    } else {
    print "hey $user, you entered the wrong password";
    }


} else {
    print "dammit get lost";

}
