if ((!$username) || (!$password))
{
   echo '<form name=login method=post action="">

   <input type=submit value=go>
   </form>';

   if($user==$username && $pass==$password)
   {
      session_register("username");
      session_register("password");

      echo "Congratulations &username, you have logged in!<br>
      <a href=\"?logout=1\" >Logout</a>";

The wrong part
Code:

if($user==$username && $pass==$password)


That should be

Code:

if($_POST['user']==$username && $_POST['pass']==$password)


Not tested, butitshould work. If not please post again.

Hm, I'm not much of a PHP guy, but I would be pretty amazed if either one of these solutions will work, because $password and $username are arrays, aren't they? I would suggest creating a slightly more complex and maybe more intuitiv data structure holding up user/pass and traverse them via a foreach($user_list AS $user) and than do the check acid was talking about OR just loop both arrays via for($i=0;...) eg.:

Code:
$success = 0;
for($i=0;$i<count($username);$i++){
   if($_POST['user']==$username[$i] && $_POST['pass']==$password[$i] )
   {
      session_register("username");
      session_register("password");

      $success = 1;
      break; // no reason to continue, we are already done
   }
}

if($success){
//give him root
}else{
//give him hell
}

Also it never hurts to access the php documentation at php.net - Arrays and the use of POST() are well explained.
