I'm having trouble with setting up an user authentication. I'm new to php and mysql, but have knowledge in c and sql. I am trying to setup a web site to have user authentication on a iis5, php4, mysql server. I have setup the my sql database and populated it with a test account and can bring the test about up on a dos command. So i know my database is working. However it appears my php can not connect to the db. My login screen does not display any errors and when i try in a username and password it just refreshes the screen. I have setup the next page for it to display, or say the username/password are incorrect. I have looked through the forum for this but, it's hard to search for this exact error. Is there maybe something i did not setup properly for the php or mysql? the only thing i have changed in the php.ini is to not display certain errorrs. I relaly need help with this, and can post my code if that would help.
