D'oh  , I forgot about that.
Now, my code is. . .
require "layout.php";
Then I go down to say "if !action, login form appears in $login, if action = login, set some cookies, $login equals 'cookie set', then at the bottom: echo $top.$login".
In layout.php, I have:
require "function.php";
*if $user = asdf $loggedin = "you are logged in * else *$loggedin = you aren't logged in*
$top = "
$loggedin";
Aaaand in function.php, I have:
$user = $_COOKIE['username'];
$pass = $_COOKIE['password'];
Pardon my crappy immitation code, I'm just lazy.
Edit: nevermind, like Gav said, I was evidently requesting cookie info after the the html started. |

well, what does your code look like? keep in mind that cookies are part of the header information of a page so they have to be set before any html.

Lol.
Okay, then how do I add a CSS font color? 
And while I'm asking questions, whenever I do anything in PHP related to cookies, "?" appears on the page  . |

How is using non-standardized? Just because it is depreciated doesn't make it non-standard... not unless you are pushing for CSS to be used... then I can see how using such formatting tags can lead to inconsistencies...
what? you didnt jump on the new wave of internet savyness and declare war against all deprecated and non-standard web code?

-- all of the previous code --
echo $top ."<font color=#CCCCCC>". $login ."</font> ". $end;
It still echoes the same error .

don't go down that alleyway WW. alleyways lead to rape. rape isn't good 
But you can't rape the willing Gavin...
As neotransotaku said you have two open braces to your one close brace... |

it's because you are missing one more close brace...i suggest in the future to indent your code appropriately... |

first off echo top shouldnt be up there
you can echo variables without the quotes eg echo $top."Hello".$bottom; |

require "layout.php";
echo "$top";
if (!$action) $login = "You are not logged in.
Username:
<form name=\"username\" method=\"post\" action=\"login.php\">
<input type=\"text\" name=\"username\">
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"action\" value=\"login\">
Password:<br>
<input type=\"password\" name=\"password\">
<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Log in\">
</form>";
if ($action == "login") {
$password = md5($password);
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("news_posts");
$sql = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `users` WHERE `password` = '$password' AND `username` = '$username'"),0);
if ($sql != 1) echo "Sorry, your username and password couldn't be found in our database";
if ($sql == 1) {
setcookie("username", $username, time()+259200);
setcookie("password", $password, time()+259200);
$login = "Cookie set successfully!";
}
echo "$login";
echo "$end";
This has the oddest error I've seen.
Parse error : syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\login.php on line 26
 , is there anything wrong with my code?
