I'm working on implementing a php registration/login script. When a user registers and then login - they are directed to a page that I would like to display a form, such as you would see in a contest. The person would fill out the form, entering the information into the database under his/her id's.
The trouble I'm finding is scripting a form within the php. I have not yet entered the fields into the database regarding the contest input fields...
Here's the php:
<?
/**
* Main.php
*
* This is an example of the main page of a website. Here
* users will be able to login. However, like on most sites
* the login form doesn't just have to be on the main page,
* but re-appear on subsequent pages, depending on whether
* the user has logged in or not.

<table>
<tr><td>
<?
/**

*/
if($session->logged_in){
echo "<h1>Logged In</h1>";
echo "Welcome <b>$session->username</b>, you are logged in. <br><br>"
."[<a href=\"userinfo.php?user=$session->username\">My Account</a>] "
."[<a href=\"useredit.php\">Edit Account</a>] ";
if($session->isAdmin()){
echo "[<a href=\"admin/admin.php\">Admin Center</a>] ";
}
echo "[<a href=\"process.php\">Logout</a>]";
/**
enter form here. this form will only be seen by those who are logged in....
*/
}
else{
?>
<h1>Login</h1>
<?
/**
* User not logged in, display the login form.
* If user has already tried to login, but errors were
* found, display the total number of errors.
* If errors occurred, they will be displayed.
*/
if($form->num_errors > 0){
echo "<font size=\"2\" color=\"#ff0000\">".$form->num_errors." error(s) found</font>";
}
?>
<form action="process.php" method="POST">

/**

echo "</td></tr><tr><td align=\"center\"><br><br>";

Can anyone help me? I just want fields like this:
1st place [ enter name here ]
2nd place [ enter name here ]
etc.
The key of course is that once this form is submitted that it goes to the correct person's name in the database...Thanks for any direction...or help.
