While trying to make password recovery script for "bhupinunder" i run into a problem...
i made this:
CODE
<?php
$dbh = mysql_connect('localhost','jaskaran_gc','gc') or die ("Cannot Connect: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('jaskaran_gc',$dbh);
?>
<form method=post action=restore.php?recover=answer>
<?php print"Email:</td><td><input type=text name=email></td></tr>";?>
<P><INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=Submit!></P></form>
<?php
if ($recover=answer) print"$email";
?>

and it doesn't print anything...but if i put it like this
CODE
<?php
$dbh = mysql_connect('localhost','jaskaran_gc','gc') or die ("Cannot Connect: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('jaskaran_gc',$dbh);
?>
<form method=post action=restore.php?recover=answer>
<?php print"Email:</td><td><input type=text name=email></td></tr>";?>
<P><INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=Validate it!></P></form>
<?php
if ($recover=answer) print"ssss";
?>

email is the name of the field in the form, correct? Depending on the HTTP method of submission you are using for the form, you can retrieve the values as:-

$_GET['email'] for GET method
$_POST['email'] for POST method

It's one of the worst things I ever saw in a while, but anyway, I just fixed some things, it might work, I didn't test anything by myself, but I guess it should work, even though I think you're still learning and are just practicing, this is why I just fixed some stuff.

CODE
<?php
$dbh = mysql_connect('localhost','jaskaran_gc','gc') or die("Cannot Connect: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('jaskaran_gc',$dbh);
?>
<form method="post" action="restore.php?recover=answer">
<tr><td>Email:</td><td><input type="text" name="email"></td></tr>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit!"></p>
</form>
<?php
if ($_GET['recover'] == 'answer') echo $_POST['email'];
?>

</form>
<?php
if ($_GET['recover'] == 'answer') mysql_query("update users set userpass=$_POST['pass'] where email=$_POST['email']") or die(mysql_error());
?>


whats wrong now?(i should have asked from the start for someone to solve it now now when no one will answer)

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/jaskaran/public_html/restore.php on line 11

Use $_POST outside of the double quotes.

CODE
if ($_GET['recover'] == 'answer') mysql_query("update users set userpass=" . $_POST['pass'] . "where email=" . $_POST['email']) or die(mysql_error());

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'email=jurica@mail.com' at line 1
