How would i connect to a database, enter a user and password in it, then allow the user to login?

~Ben
 
what database do you want to use?
if you use mySQL it's like this:

mysql_connect("host","username","password");

then insert the data.
 
I use mySQL. I need to know every step because I am just learning SQL and have very little PHP experance.
 
There are a lot of steps involved with PHP and MySQL. I would recommend going to and starting with the mysql_connect or mysql_pconnect functions. From there it all depends on what you are tring to accomplish. I would probably read the descriptions of each function in the MySQL chapter to understand how the two work together. Under each function is examples on syntax and links to related functions.
