<!----------this is my form.php------------>
<html>
	<?php
		echo "Your username is : $user <br>";
		echo "Your password is : $pass <br>";
	?>
</html>

<!-------------this is my form.html---------------->
<html>
	<body>	
		<form action="form.php" medthod="POST">
			Password:<input type="password" name="pass"><br>
			User :  <input type="text" name="user"><br><br>
				<input type="submit" value="Submit">
			</form>
	</body>
</html>

These two files are in same folder . But when I typed text and pass in html file , then php file was called . However , result didnt work as I want . It only print :

Your name is :
Your password is :

What problem here?

echo "Your username is : " . $_POST['user'] . "<br>";

You must reference the form values from the $_POST array for post-method form data. (If you have register_globals enabled, you could use your method, but register_globals has been deprecated for quite some time due to potential security issues and is turned off by default in any reasonably up-to-date version of PHP.)

I typed exactly your code and I fixed "register_globals= on" in file php.ini then copy this file into window folder but it still not work .

I still dont understand why it doesnt work .

			echo "Your pass :" . $_POST['pass']. "<br>";
	?>	
</html>

<!-------------this is my form.html------------------>
<html>
	<body>	
		<form action="form.php" medthod="POST">

		User :  <input type="text" name="user"><br><br>
                    Password:<input type="password" name="pass"><br>   
			<input type="submit" value="Submit">
		</form>
</body>
</html>

Your user is : Peter

Your pass is :

<form action="form.php" medthod="POST">

should be:

<form action="form.php" method="POST">

What version of PHP are you using? If older than 4.1.0 you will need to use the $HTTP_POST_VARS array instead of $_POST. (Hopefully your server is not that far out of date, but it's possible.)
