What Browser scripting language to use to let users create basic accounts on a website?
Just an account where they can login and edit a profile. Would it be Javascript, PHP or something else? Thanks

Answer 1 :
That would be server-side scripting, with a database attached to it. PHP and MySQL would be the best (and easiest) combination for it. Do a Google search for "PHP MySQL simple Member System".
Answer 2 :
If you're just creating the website, and aren't hosting it, then I agree with the above post; PHP and MySQL work together wonderfully. However, if you're hosting your website yourself, rather than on a hosting site, this is a different story. I found that the easiest way to do this was to set up a "LAMP" server.. LAMP stands for Linux Apache MySQL PHP. Just Google "setting up a LAMP server" and it'll be easy to get started. Either way, you can easily find a good template for login and even profile information.. Good luck!
