It depends on what you want to do, for making a webmail-type page,
equal for all users but with some personalized info you should
consider using a database (mysql could be easy) and use the username
to retrieve that info.

Other than that being _extremely_ insecure:
@include("/path/to/users/files/{$_GET['username']}.php");
HTH.

If you want to show a certain web page according to a variable you can
insert this on your code:
$page = $_POST['user'].'.php';
require_once($p age);
This will take the name of the user from the $_POST variable and then
insert the code of "user".php into your page. There would be a
user1.php, user2.php, user3.php pages...

sorry bout the html, i wasnt sure if it was required to interpret the script
or not. What i want to do is have the user log in and then from there be
directed to their own page. I wasnt sure if that form action would be
sufficent or if i would need something else. I know how to do all the
verification checks and the displaying of their results but i couldnt get how
to make the page display through the form verification.
if you still dont understand let me know. i am trying to be as clear as
possible.

form posting difficulty
I'm doing a login form and i am trying to get it to post to a page that
would vary based on the username given. I have figure out how to
display all the info once it is posted. I mean i know how to select it
from the db but other than that i'm kinda at a dead end. so far i have
the following code snibblets:
Form Login
<html>
<head>
<title>login</title>
</head>
<form method="post" action="main.ph p?user=$_POST[username]">
// basic login form here with username and then username text box and
then password and then password box and then submit button.
// the name of the username field is username, name of password field is
password and then submit button field is submit.
Display page
info to be determined. I havent decided if i should go with a template
or not to be based on each user or not but thats a different story lol
thx for all ur help if u can help me.
