Hi.
doing an assignment, for my Certificate Four In Website Administration.

Wow someone doing an assignment has written some code :) Good stuff!

$_POST['username'];
$_POST['password'];
if ('username'='username') & ('password'='password')

This little bit of code is your problem.

Firstly you want to assign the username and password to some variables:

$posted_username = $_POST['username'];
$posted_password = $_POST['password'];

http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.php#language.variables.basics

Then you want to check them:

if ($posted_username == 'username' && $posted_password == 'password')
{
....

in php, one = means "assignment"

http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.assignment.php

to check a variable, use two - "==".
