I Created a DataBase, and ik my code works perfectly, since i used xampp to test.
The code seems fine, it just seems that its not accepting my username and password.

What format are the PHPmyAdmin Username and Passwords?
Are they your toontown email and password?

and i set the server to localhost, which it seems to say.

Hi toontow7,

The database details your script is incorrect, as the database user you have specified does not exist. Please create a new database user in cPanel, and then use that one in login.php.

Thank you,

cPanel regular ...
Databases section
MySQLDatabases <----- click on
Middle of page. "Add New user"
If your cPanel username is "george" and you add "bush", the full username will be "george_bush"
Write down the password
Then, after you have created the user, "Add User To Database" ... add it to your database WITH ALL PRIVILEGES.

[02-Oct-2014 18:43:04 America/New_York] PHP Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/toontow7/public_html/mysql_login/login.php on line 19

1) Do not use mysql_xxxxx functions. Use mysqli_xxxxx or PDO. mysql_ is old, deprecated, and soon will not run at all on PHP versions.

2) You are running mysql_num_rows( $result ) and $result is FALSE --- ie your original query FAILED.

3) You can always use cPanel --> phpMyAdmin to look into your database and check the actual values in your tables.

Well, first when i do mysqli_xxxx, it gives me a bunch of errors, saying i need more parameters.
Second of all, if i do mysql_xxx, It gives me that one error.
The query dosnt seem to have anything wrong with it:
$query = "SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `Username`='$myusername' and `Password`='$mypassword' ";

Well, your query returns a BOOLEAN -- see the error message you get when you try to use the result in another function.
It only returns a boolean when you have an ERROR.
So, something is wrong.
Every database driver has a function to recover the last error.
mysql_xxxxx has mysql_error() .

Did you print out the results of mysql_error() ? Did you?

Print out $query to make sure it looks right. Print it from the script. Running on x10hosting, not your local machine.

Try removing the quotes from around users , Username and Password.

The fact that it runs on your local machine means very little.

I get this when I do die(mysql_error());
"No database selected"
same as if I remove the ` ` from the query.

EDIT

I added a USE $hostname
to my query,
i got this:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username='admin' and Password='thunder'' at line 1

<?php

$username = "myusername";
$password = "mypassword";
$hostname = "localhost";

$databasehandle = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password) or die("Couldn't Connect to the database!");

$selected = mysql_select_db("login", $databasehandle);

$myusername = $_POST['user'];
$mypassword = $_POST['pass'];

$myusername = stripslashes($myusername);
$mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword);
$query = "USE `localhost` SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `Username`='$myusername' and `Password`='$mypassword'; ";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);

if($count == 1) {
$seconds = 300 + time();
header("location:login_success.php");
setcookie(loggedin, date("F jS - g:i a"), $seconds);
} else {
die(mysql_error());
}

mysql_close();

?>

$selected = mysql_select_db("login", $databasehandle);

The database name would be of the form: yourcPanelUsername_login
You can test $selected ... FALSE means failure, TRUE means success.
