I know that in php to write a users script/login script without a database but with a text file is not safe. But I do not know how to write a table in my db so i am using a txt file but have no clue how to get it to when someone fills out a form it saves there username:password:email .... please help me...

first, you have to have a database set up... do you know if your host offers that to you? something like MySQL would be perfect for that, and most hosts have that, if they offer any kind of a database at all. but you have to check with them to make sure, because most free/cheap hosts don't offer it at all.

after you have a database set up, get phpmyadmin (http://phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net/) and run it, it'll do everything you need real easily and is about as user-friendly as you can get.

Yep, looks like the same question.
Have you tried anything yet?
If so, what is happening? Post your code if you need help.

If you are looking for someone to write the code for you you should post in the Aquiring Skills forum.
