The reason I ask is because you have );'; at the end. Try getting rid of that extra …

[code=php]if(empty($_POST['username'])){ echo"Please enter username"; } if(empty($_POST['password'])){ echo"Please enter password"; }[/code] Obviously, you could do a lot of other checks like verifying the number of characters in each field with strlen.

Very close. Remember, variables are case sensitive. <input type="text" name="username" maxlength="12"/> Then in the php you have: $Username = $_POST["Username"]; Should be: $Username = $_POST["username"]; The same goes for email, wing, and comment. Looks like your getting the hang of it though.
