Alright, so I am working on this website and I need to code a login field so it corresponds with my MYSQL DB, and I'd like to do it with PHP. I'd also like to have the box display with the user's username and some info(you joined X day, stuff like that) and then certain links. The links and info with user name only are to display when the login is successful. Would it also be possible to code the login field so that a jquery message pops up saying "Login Successful!" or "Login Failed! Invalid Username or Password" and stuff like that? I'd also like to code a registration form, and am not sure how D:
Here's the login box:

I really appreciate any help you guys can offer! Thanks!
P.S: This is a tad urgent, so...yeah 😛
 
Is this for a site you're starting to build, or would you you like it to be on top of some software? Because if it's done with some software, you just have the HTML form submit to the same URL as the normal login form (or if the login is jquery/ajax powered, just have it send an AJAX request in the same way the other login field does).

However, if you are starting off from scratch, I'd be able to lend a hand.
 
It's on top of an HTML/CSS built website. It's from scratch, no software. Can you help!? I am utterly lost 🙁 D:
 
Is it submitting to your forums' login though? Or should it be a totally different users' table?
 
It's not built into a forum software, as I do not have one. It's a completely separate users' table 😉
