forget password coding issue

[whitey]

i have email in tbl_email and the password in tbl_master_name .

The mysql statement should work as:

SELECT email, password FROM tbl_email, tbl_master_name
WHERE email='$email;

If you look on line 16, you will find the error message i am recieving, which im sure is whre the problem is

O don't see the problem. You already get the 2 columns for userid and email address from 2 tables: tbl_master_name and tbl_email.

Maybe I misunderstand, but please elaborate a bit.

Hi All,

The following script works when username(or email) and password are in 1 table. what i need to know is how to adjust the code to reflect that the email will be held in tbl_email and the password will be held in tbl_master_name .

<?php
include ("conn.inc.php");

$username=$_POST["username"];
$res=mysql_query("SELECT username, email FROM tbl_master_name, tbl_email WHERE username='$username'") or die("cannot select from email");				
$row=mysql_fetch_array($res);
$email=$row["email"];
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);  
$random=rand(1234,2343); 
$password=$row["name"].$random; 

$upassword=md5($password);

mysql_query("update tbl_master_name set password='$password' where username='$username'") or die("cannot send your password");

$headers ="From: noreply@ACRE.com\n"; //from address
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 \n";
$subject ="Password Recovery - Do Not Reply Back To This Email";

$body="<div align=center><br><br>----------------------------- A.C.R.E Password Recovery--------------------------------<br><br><br><br>
Your Temporary Password is: $password<br><br>Remember your password this time or the cow gets it!<br><br><br>Click the link below to log in. <br>http://www.tramp-space.co.uk/assignment/ <br><br> If the link doesnt work, please copy it and paste it into your browser.<br><br> Thank you</div>";

if(mail($email,$subject,$body,$headers)) {echo "<font class=tblackb>Your password has been send to your Registered Email</font> ";}  

else {echo "<font class=tblackb>Password Not Send.<br><Br>Please Try Again Later!...</font>";}
?>
