Since you have already created that script,i would suggest you to add a link for editing the profiles of the user after login.When the user logs in take his userid in a cookie or session variable(Make sure that this userid is unique).

The edit link should be something like..

echo "<a href="editprofile.phtml?userid=$userid">Edit Profile</a>n";

//$userid may be a cookie or a session variable.

-----------------

In editprofile.phtml
-------------------

<?


if(isset($userid)){

//when user clicks on edit link..

//After connection functions..

$result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM login WHERE userid='$userid'",$con);
//Get the user records issueing above sql.

$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);

if(mysql_num_rows>0){

echo "<form action="$PHP_SELF" method="post">n";

echo "UserName : <input type="text" name="username" value=".$row["userid"].">n";
//put the userid to the text box.

echo "Password : <input type="text" name="pwd" value=".$row["pwd"].">n";

echo "<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Update">n";
echo "<form>n";
}else{
echo "Sorry Your record is not fetchingn";
exit;
}
}elseif (isset($submit)){
//if user clicks on update his profile..

$sql="UPDATE login SET userid='$username',pwd='$pwd' WHERE userid='$username'";

$result=mysql_query($sql,$con);
//Update the database issueing above sql statement..
if(mysql_affected_rows[$result]==1){
//database updated
echo "Thank You!!! Profile has been changed successfullyn";
}else{
//couldn't update..
echo "Couldn't update the databasen";
exit;
}
}else{
echo "Error !! Invalid accessn";
exit;
}

?>

Good Luck!!!
