i have two scripts that are not running to reset a password that has been forgotten and the other to change old password.
here are the scripts.
change_passwd.p hp
<?
require_once("s ystem_fns.php") ;
session_start() ;
do_html_header( "Changing password");
//check_valid_use r();
$new_passwd=($_ POST['new_passwd']);
$new_passwd2=($ _POST['new_passwd2']);
if (!filled_out($H TTP_POST_VARS))
{
echo "You have not filled out the form completely.
Please try again.";
display_user_me nu();
//do_html_footer( );
exit;
}
else
{
if ($new_passwd!=$ new_passwd2)
echo "Passwords entered were not the same. Not changed.";
else if (strlen($new_pa sswd)>16 || strlen($new_pas swd)<6)
echo "New password must be between 6 and 16 characters. Try again.";
else
{
// attempt update
if (change_passwor d($valid_user, $old_passwd, $new_passwd))
echo "Password changed.";
else
echo "Password could not be changed.";
}
}
display_user_me nu();
//do_html_footer( );
?>
error warnings from this code are.

these are the errror warnings i got.
