PHP Scripting question?

No, you don't need to add a form, basically the form is already in the code.

//The web form for input ability
else
 {
 echo "<form action=\"?op=reg\" method=\"POST\">\n";
 echo "Username: <input name=\"username\" MAXLENGTH=\"16\"><br />\n";
 echo "Password: <input type=\"password\" name=\"password\" MAXLENGTH=\"16\"><br 

/>\n";
 echo "Email Address: <input name=\"email\" MAXLENGTH=\"25\"><br />\n";
 echo "<input type=\"submit\">\n";
 echo "</form>\n";
 }

I think all you need to do is change this part of the code and replace the xxxx with the input names in the form above.

// Fields are clear, add user to database
 //  Setup query
 $q = "INSERT INTO `dbUsers` (`username`,`password`,`email`) "
  .
   "VALUES ('".$_POST["username"]."', "
  ."PASSWORD('".$_POST["password"]."'), "
  .
    "'".$_POST["email"]."')";

The code in the tutorial has it this way, so not sure why you changed the variables to xxxxx in your 1st post.

Honestly, I'm still not sure what your question is. When I click on your link, I see a "Error Connecting to Database" message. Is this what you need help with?

If so, you don't want to touch any of the code with the form in it. You need to modify the dbConfig.php file and put your username and password for the mysql database you setup.

<?
// Replace the variable values below
// with your specific database information.
$host = "localhost";
$user = "UserName";
$pass = "Password";
$db   = "dbName";

Change it to something like

<?
// Replace the variable values below
// with your specific database information.
$host = "localhost";
$user = "hostname_dvad3";
$pass = "abc123";
$db   = "hostname_dbName";
