I have this php login script which I would like to use with an HTML login page my group mate created.
Now I know from previous post that login should be best handled with just a php script alone, however for the sake of keeping things civil and easy
for group-mate, I would like to know how can I use this php login form with the html form method = "post" action = "".
I am thinking that I should just remove the print '<form action="login.php".....> section of my code but, will that work and is there a better way (other than obviously just using the PHP form alone) to do this.?
I am enclosing my php form first and then my classmates html form second.
Thank you in advance for all your help!

<?php
//login php
//in theory:use the compare example from the passwords in the register.php file downloaded from the internet and the pull user, store them into two variables and see if the variables match if not, try again.
// connect to database
//basic variables: the database address, SQL username and password, and database name
$config['address'] = 'localhost';
$config['username'] = 'cmpt'; //Can be changed.
$config['password'] = 'ZuvRMpn38FzZcbzz'; //Can be changed If there is a password to the sql database or removed
$config['databasename'] = 'customers'; //can be changed.
$userNameVariable = mysql_query("SELECT uname FROM customers");
$userPasswordVariable = mysql_query("SELECT pword FROM customers");
mysql_connect($config['address'], $config['username'], $config['password']);
mysql_select_db($config['databasename']);
define ('TITLE', 'Login');
