It sounds like the query didn't return any results. You can check how many records the query returned with mysql_num_rows.

i need change password script

[Synook]

There is no such thing as a universal "change password" script (except one that prints "change password") - you need to write one that is specific to your application. If you try to follow the advice we give you in debugging your script, then eventually you should be able to get a working solution.

Sounds like a broken record to me.Love your answer justsomeguy!I suggest making sure your matching your field names properly, as well as table name. And echo the row count as mentioned above. Then post back with meaningful information for us to maybe try and help fix the problem.
