I'm trying to set up my database however I ran into some issues sadly. I've seen that many people asked either the same or similar question but no matter how I look at my code, and modify it. I get confused more, and add more errors. So if someone could explain to me how I can attempt to fix it I'd appreciate it.
Here is the error message:
Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/folder/public_html/folder/folder/login.php on line 18
