Hi and thanks for looking.

The code below is my signup page and it all goes fine until i have to compare the code i sent to their email address with the code they copy into a textbox. It works but only on when you submit the form and then ALSO refresh the page.

I have spent days on this and just can't see how to fix it. Any tips at all would be great. Sorry the code probably is the greatest, but i'm just starting out so I'll have time to fix it up.

BTW the site page can be viewed at http://www.thinksane.net/signup.php

Thanks again for looking

You have $_POST variables such as this:

$_POST[activationsubmit]

They must be like this:

$_POST['activationsubmit']

Fix those first and see what happens.

Suomedia,

thanks for getting back. OK I have enclosed all POSTs in quotation marks. The full code is below just to make sure i don't do anything stupid.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have helped. The else statement at the end of the code is still just getting executed after the activation code has been entered.

again here is the code and i am also uploading it to thinksane.net/signup.php

Its working perfectly. You need to clear your browser cookies.

Hi just as i got your message I tried it having put in code that clears the cookies and it is working perfectly.

THANK YOU for looking. You have no idea how many times i thought my head was going to explode over this.

Sometimes I wonder why i love computers and the web.

Anyway thanks again and just for anyone searching via the almighty Google in the future the code that works is shown below.

Suomedia thanks again.
