Register and Login Tutorial problems
Posted: Sat Jun 23, 2012 5:26 pm
First off, I am wrapping the login/register/user management code with twitter bootstrap, if that makes any difference. I am not sure what is wrong really, but the register and login pages won't show 
Here are all of the files used:
Before the login and register pages wouldn't show, users were not added to the database, and you were unable to log in, is that because I am using localhost instead of 127.0.0.1?
init.inc.php
)
I put all of the pages in the nav bar for ease of access temporarily

The live site is at http://grange.robbrazier.com (just lorem ipsum so far )I put all of the pages in the nav bar for ease of access temporarily
What do you mean by show ? What happens instead ?
