OK, now when you say "I use a php script", when aer you

Do you get the form displayed but get the error when you press

OK, so what you said first was incorrect. You are using the script
to
produce the form. So it is not the act of accessing $_SERVER per se
that is causing the 403. You are getting the 403 when you try to
submit the form to the "address" that is output by the original php
call.

By default the form will submit to the same address that is in the
address bar, so try coding the form as

Thanks. I think I see what you mean but can I still use the keyed
username
and password as variables and go furhter to for instance a database
with
them. I admit I am a newbie but if you don't ask you don't get any
answers.
/Lennart- Hide quoted text -

What is happening with the way that you have coded your script (if
you've done it correctly) is that the first time it gets executed, it
will display the form. Then when you click "Sign Up" the same script
is executed again, but this time it detects that it has been run due
to a valid form submission and the does whatever other processing you
have asked it to do.

Thanks. Your suggested code worked as expected and accepted the inouts an
took care of them.
Just the follow question as above - can I in your script use the input
names
as variables for further actions?

OK Script could be the wrong word. You suggested an other code that could
do, and did, the same task but in an other way and then my follow question
was if I, if using your code, can use the given inputs, username and
password, as variables for further actions?
Sorry if I was not clear enough

I just copied your exact HTML and simply removed the php part.
Anything you could do with it as it was, you can still do with it as I
haven't changed it at all.
I am not sure what you mean by using the inputs as variables. You will
have to be more precise in explaining what you mean?

I'm sorry if I am not precise enough. I just wonder that I, if using your
suggested code can go on with the given username and passwor and use them as
variables for checking against a database table with approved users. I guess
I can use $_POST["username"] to do that. Is that OK?

When running my original script i furthermore get:
http://localhost/%3C?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>
in the URL-line of the browser.
I know the script works because i have ran it at the webb-hotel. Just
wondering why it works there but not on my local workstation

It's not working because on your system your php.ini has

short_open_tag= off

(or it defaults to this).

You shouldn't count on short_open_tag being enabled. Many hosts don't
have it on. Rather, use:

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post">

It should work on all servers.
