I agree with you. I do not believe we are discussing a design issue. I have already finished the design and have built the environments and it is working. So I wish to continue discussing my coding issues publically in this forum. That's what groups like these are for, for sharing code.
Okay, so I have got this problem working by creating different environments, copies of each page for the different type of membership and one for when the member is signed out. All the "signed out" users are taken to .htm files and the logged in members are taken to .php files. I had a drop down box below the username and password for login as a certain type. If they selected STANDARD type and submitted the form, they would be taken to the STANDARD environment. But, that was only for testing purposes...and I had it working. But I want the code to check from the database which type the member signed up as and take them automatically. It is not working, but I have found the location of the problem...it is in these lines:
> $sql = "SELECT loginName FROM membership
> WHERE loginName='$_POST[fusername]'
> AND type='$thetype' ";
> $result3 = mysql_query($sql)or die("Couldn't execute query 3.");
>
> if ($thetype == "standard")
The code pulls the username (loginName) and membership type (type) from the membership table exactly as they were working when the user selected the type manually. However, for some reason, the code simply skips over the last statement above and does not see that $thetype and standard are equal and goes to the else, which is not included above but follows.
I am looking at it and trying many different things, but I still can't seem to pull it off.
Can anyone help? Did I type a command incorrectly?
Thanks for any help.

Well, I wouldn't want anyone yelling at you either. Its no problem.
I was just thinking though that mingling php with html in a file is as much
a part of learning php as the code itself. Or at least it is important with
.asp.
Take care,
