How can I do this??

I was thinking something like this:

function login($username,$password)
{

global $myDB;

$myquery = "SELECT username, password FROM forum_user WHERE (username = '$username') AND (password = '".md5($password)."')";
$myresult = $myDB->query($myquery);

... rest of coding here before it gets logged in ...

}

login($_POST['vb_login_username'],$_POST['vb_login_password']);

Don't know if that makes sense at all.

Hope you get what I want to do

Hugs,
