1- your mysql query statement is better to have a WHERE part too.
2- I would use mysql_fetch_row instead of mysql_fetch_assoc
3- in your form, you're using a single quote. anything in between single
quotes will be printed as is. you need to close your single quote and print
username and open another single quote. Like this:
'.......' . $username02 . '.........'
Or I personally would close my php, print the form in html and use <?php echo
$username02; ?> where you need the username. And then I would start another <?
php section if I need it.
