I cant help with the lazy jQuery approach

What is meant by this?

Don't matter I will leave it like this for now until I gain enough experience to go deeper with it.

Some good points guys, JelvinJS7 you say a musician could benefit if a pirated copy is downloaded because the 'pirate' could like it and want to go see them. Well doesn't this work for a developer? If someone pirates their script they could go to the developers website and see more scripts they like...

Ok I have been following a tutorial from another site on how to jQuery/AJAX your input data so it checks if a username has been used or not. All is working great (so far) but in the included PHP file that connects to the DB and runs the SQL check I have entered the connection details, so I thought t...

Why do you think pirating scripts is lame but everything else is not?

To be fair on your music point dylan, a single use to cost £3 here in the UK now you can get it for around £1 which is a big cut but as you also point out its still a massive profit (for a large selling track), producers have to sell at this price to fund new talent.

Already tried the echo mysql_error(); I learnt that from you last time I had a problem it wasn't showing anything just looping back.

Got it anyway I had named my table id and not user_id doh!

ok spoke too soon, the user details are being placed in the database and I can log-in with them but nothing is being added to the user_activations table, any ideas?

I have no idea what just happened but its now working perfect :\ hmmm anyway onwards I go

some one from codecanyon created a site to allow people to send multiple file take downs to a large number of file hosts in one go, forget the name now take a look in the CC forums for a link.
