Code doesn't print what i wanted it too. Please help!


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi there,

I wrote this code to mae it so that in the form before it that the user said their username and then on this page it matches up the username with the username on the database and then uses the password of that users as $password. I am new to php and i thought that this would do the trick. But it doesn't. Instead of printing the password it prints "Resource id #6".

Here's the code:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /><title>Radio Ilam | Radio of the Suburbs</title><meta name="keywords" content="music note, free template, website template, CSS, XHTML" /><meta name="description" content="Music Note - free CSS template provided by templatemo.com" /><link href="templatemo_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><style type="text/css">
.style1 {
text-align: center;
}
.style2 {
font-weight: bold;
color: #C32929;
}
.style3 {color: #FF0000}

td {padding: 2px; vertical-align:top; border-top: 1px solid #CCC;}
</style></head>
