You could also take a look at "PHP & MySQL for dummies" it considers two examples, the one beeing a member site like you are talking about

yes
also "PHP5 and MySQL Bible" is also very good one
note that php 5 is still beta

ok guys, soon i'll write a tutorial explaining in detailes how to make a membership script, it's really not that complicated, i have already done one of them for an admin panle on a website i'm working one but the thing is that that script works for on one predefined username and password, the tutorial i'm going to do will explain how make the membership script to work with a database, witch means that you're user can regester and login so keep up, it's coming soon

so we can create a little community?

What do you mean by that? When you mean by community are you saying community like a message board because that is incredible difficult to do.

i mean a portal with users who can be seen as a community, it does not only mean to have messahe board but also if possible give users some disk space for their profiles an so on.

you need a database on that

[skyline_music]

You don't necessarily need a database, but the alternatives - saving usernames and passwords in .txt files, for example - can be risky and insecure.

I wrote some simple PHP scripts for members to sign in and add information to a page (or several pages) but one of the inherent difficulties in using .txt files like I did is that unless you have an elaborate sign-up page, you will have ask everyone individually what they would like their username and pass to be.

If you would like an example of this script, PM me and I'll see if I can find one. Otherwise, checkout
