how to implement a login script using PHP
<p>I've found this login script and I'm trying to implement it into my website but having a little trouble:
   

<pre><code>// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("testing") or die(mysql_error());

//checks cookies to make sure they are logged in
if(isset($_COOKIE['ID_my_site']))
{
    $username = $_COOKIE['ID_my_site'];
    $pass = $_COOKIE['Key_my_site'];

    $check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username'")or      die(mysql_error());

    while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $check ))
    {
        //if the cookie has the wrong password, they are taken to the login page
        if ($pass != $info['password'])
        {
            header("Location: loginscript.php");
        }

        //otherwise they are shown the admin area
        else
        {
            echo "&lt;a href=logout.php&gt;Logout&lt;/a&gt;";
        }
    }
}
else
    //if the cookie does not exist, they are taken to the login screen
{
    header("Location: newlogin.php");
}
</code></pre>

<p>I want to get rid of:</p>

<pre><code>        else 

        { 

     echo "&lt;a href=logout.php&gt;Logout&lt;/a&gt;"; 

        } 
</code></pre>

<p>as it messes with my css, I just want the last part of the else statement to work but when i take it out it errors out.</p>

<p>how do I do this??</p>

<p>thanks</p>
