 with css label is on the left and labelled is on the right
without css, label is on the top and labelled is on the bottom


If modify.php is:

<form action="modify2.php" method="post">
<div class="category">
Modify
</div>
<div class="element">
<div id="label">
Email:
<br>
<br>
Password:
</div>
<div id="labelled">
<input name="email" class="text" type="text" size="40"
value="<? echo $email; ?>" id="email">
<br>
<br>
<input name="password" class="text" type="password"
size="20" value="<? echo $password; ?>" id="password">
<br>
<br>
<input type="submit" class="button" value="Modify">
</div>
<div class="hack">
</div>
</div>
</form>



and modify2.php is:

session_start();
include ('../others/automatic.php');
mysql_connect("localhost", $mysql_username, $mysql_password) or
die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("Intermediary") or die(mysql_error());
sanitize("post", "email");
sanitize("post", "password");
echo $email;
echo $password;
mysql_close();


I type testing@testing.com for username and testing for password at
modify.php, but modify2.php echoes test@test.com for username and test
for password. Why???

I suspect it has something to do with sanitize(), but you didn't post
the details of that function.

function sanitize($method, $variable)
{
$variable=$_[$variable];
$variable=htmlentities($variable);
$variable=mysql_real_escape_string($variable);
}

$_post is NOT the same as $_POST!

Are you sure that what you have shown us as the contents of
modify2.php is really all that is in it and do you have Register
Globals switched on?

Your sanitize function is not valid php and should display some
errors. It is certainly not going to influence the contents of any
variables in the main modify2.php script.
