<title>Registration Test</title><?PHP
//Database Information
$dbhost = "mysql15.powweb.com";
$dbname = "cccompany_info";
$dbuser = "cccomany28";
$dbpass = "-----";
//Connect to database
mysql_connect ($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = md5($_POST['password']);
// lets check to see if the username already exists
$checkuser = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username='$username'");
$username_exist = mysql_num_rows($checkuser);
if($username_exist > 0){
echo "I'm sorry but the username you specified has already been taken. Please pick another one.";
unset($username);
include 'register.html';
exit();
}
// lf no errors present with the username
// use a query to insert the data into the database.
$query = "INSERT INTO users (name, email, username, password)
VALUES('$name', '$email', '$username', '$password')";
mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_close();
echo "You have successfully Registered";
// mail user their information
$yoursite = ‘www.Msusaonline.com’;
$webmaster = ‘Alpha’;
$youremail = ‘dnice006@aol.com’;
$subject = "You have successfully registered at $yoursite...";
$message = "Dear $name, you are now registered at our web site.

mail($email, $subject, $message, "From: $yoursite <$youremail>\nX-Mailer:PHP/" . phpversion());
echo "Your information has been mailed to your email address.";
