Trying to Learn MySQL/PHP with Dreamweaver

[Stephen Tiano]

I'm trying to learn to create database-driven websites on the Macintosh 
using Dreamweave MX, PHP, and MySQL. I'm working thru exercises ina 
great book published by the recently-defunct Glasshaus, Dreamweaver MX: 
PHP Web Development.

I'm in the next-to-the-last chapter, trying to complete an exercise that 
jumps from a "Create User" page to a "Login" page when it doesn't 
recognize your username and password. But when I login, it leads to what 
I can only describe as "a circular trap": I type in my name and 
password, as the login requests. I then press the "Login" button, and a 
tiny choice box lowers from the top of the screen, saying:

  Select a username to be entered on the form.

And it lists all the usernames I've played with on the various pages of 
this test site. I select one and a good password also appears in the 
next field, or I just type in both; then I push the "Log in" button.

Thus begins the process again: box with choices drops down, etc.

Is anyone familiar with this? I've been trying to figure this since 
Sunday night. It ruined an otherwise productive weekend, and it's making 
me crazy, as the more Ilook over the code, the more it swims before my 
eyes and looks like an eyechart out of control.

Thanks you.
