    Log in where? Who has the bank details?

    Are you talking about making a website where people log in and have a "profile" page, where information about them is displayed back to them?

    You really need to describe in FULL what you want done.

    You got it right. The bank was only an example.

    Oh ok.

    Here's a nice little tutorial on creating password protected pages, using a MySQL database to store user information.

    You should be able to flesh it out and have details from the database display on the users "profile" page.

    ya need a better host or pay the small fee to get MySQL.

    If your talking about creating logins and holding passwords and having password protected pages you really need to have a database behind it all.

    Jesus what host nowadays doesn't include at least a single MySQL database :O - you better off doing it this way as file based could be a security risk, well lets just say less secure than DB id imagine.

    Then rather than taking the username password information, you'll need to hard code it or read/write it from/to a text file (although I doubt if you'll have rights to do that). Either way, unless you're just doing a simple college project, you'd have a pretty Micky Mouse application written if you had to do it that way.

    TBH, you need to explain in slightly greater detail what you're requirements are, as this will allow people to better advise a solution.

    If you want just one user to login use .htaccess otherwise you will have to buy mysql of your host.
