One thing I can see immediately from the code posted above is an error in movie1.php

echo "<a href='http://localhost/moviesite.php?favmovie= $myfavmovie'>";

shouldn't have a space in the URL. It should be:

echo "<a href='http://localhost/moviesite.php?favmovie=$myfavmovie'>";

Also, what happens when you try? Is there any kind of error message?

i don have any error.
it should be log in into the movie1.php
but the page say "Sorry , u dont have permission to view this page,Loser! ! !";

Are you typing in the right user name and password?

The username is: Joe
The password is: 12345

yes , i type the right pass and username.
i also don know y cant log in.

Try adding this at the beginning of the movie1.php (after the opening <?php tag)

Code:

while(list($key, $val) = each ($_POST))
{
      echo "$key -- > $val<br>";
}

and post back on the new output that appears at the top of the page.

What this does is output to you all the info being past to the page from the superglobal POST.

after i add ......nothing happen

That means nothing is being passed from the previous page.

Something I've just noticed. In this line:

<input type="submit" name+"submit" value="submit"> from login.php

should be

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">

Also from login.php

<form method "post" action="http://localhost/movie1.php">

should be

<form method="post" action="http://localhost/movie1.php">

The form data was being sent via the GET method rather than POST.

Try that.
