I have been pulling my hair out here trying to see where i am going wrong, so to stop a young(ish) man going bald please take a look and advise why I am getting a parse error on the line containing <?php if (isset($....etc

<b>Username:</b> <input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20" name="username"
<?php if (isset($_POST['username'])) ?> value="<?php echo $_POST['username']; ?>" <?php } ?>/><br />
<b>Password:</b> <input type="password" size="20" maxlength="10" name="password" /><br />

Thanks

this code is pretty messed up

you didn't opent the code block with a brace !

PHP Code:

?>

<b>Username:</b>

<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20" Name="username" 

<?php

if (isset($_POST['username'])) {

?>

value="<?php echo $_POST['username']; ?>"

<?php 

}

?>

/><br />

if the error is still there, tell us what is the message appearing !

I am new to this but i would try replacing the line :

PHP Code:

<?php if (isset($_POST['username'])) ?> value="<?php echo $_POST['username']; ?>" <?php } ?>/><br />

with

PHP Code:

<?php

if (isset($_POST['username']))

{ echo " value=", $_POST['username'], " /><br />" ; }

Basicly it looks like you are missing your opening bracket {
