yo its real simple you just need to set up a database with a good table
and a fly script i can help you if you want ill post a script

just say the words i know what it feels like to have all the questions with no answers.....

[beannight]

craete a table in a data base call it user_data then wat you want to do is
create an html form say that it has two fields a username and a password
then wat you want to do is with that form post that data into the fields of your table which should be username and password

[Dormilich]

the fields of your table which should be username and password

it is generally recommended to use the password hash instead of the plain password.

yea and the md5 as well

[Dormilich]

using sha265 or ripemd is more secure than md5.
