TODO: Write a script to submit a username and password to enter a page. If the username and password does not match the variable hardcoded in the script show the login form again with an error message. The password field should be private so that as you type you'll see ****. Upon correct login display a list of banners in an array from a select box to display (you can use either a single or multi-dimensional array). Upon choosing a banner and pressing submit, then have the script print the banner to the browser. This will allow for an account of banners that only a person with the correct username/password can get in and view by image path. Use either a for() or while() loop to create the dropdown SELECT box with the available banners in the array and hidden form tags to transfer the validated password. This should all be one self-contained script with NO include() or require() files.

What's the winning prize?

I believe its just a challenge. No prize.

Well... It sure as hell aint pretty but, it works :D
