$random=md5($rand);
$captcha= strtoupper(substr($random,0,4));
$hidden= "<input name='captcha' type='hidden' id='userlevel' value='$captcha'>";
echo <<<html

Try using the code tags so it is easier to read on the forum,


<?php
echo "see what I mean";
?>


I do not see any functions for mysql in use, are you asking "How do I use MySQL and PHP?".

To use MySQL with PHP, you need to first create the database and table(s).

For the PHP part, you need to:
1. Connect to MySQL && Select a database
2. Perform a query
3. Possibly Get the results.
4. Close the database.

<form action="adduser.php" method="POST" name="regform" onsubmit="return CheckAgree();">

adduser.php should use the following functions:

mysqli_connect()
mysqli_query()
mysqli_close()

This is the minimum.

I was looking at your code, and you have mixed JavaScript, CSS, and XHTML in on document.

For cleaner and valid code, try using external JavaScript and CSS. Also, there seems to be no need to "echo" the html document, especially the way you are doing it.

Your document is not valid html, it doesn't have the <html> tag as it should.
