You can try this snippet:

=3){
echo " you have to wait for sometimes to enable your login"."
";
}

if(isset($_POST["username"],$_POST["userpassword"])){
    $username = $_POST['username'];
    $userpassword = $_POST['userpassword'];

    $query = "SELECT * from userlogin where username='".$username."' and userpassword='".$userpassword."'";
    $result = mysql_query($query);
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

if($row){
    echo"login successfull";
}
else{
    echo"Invalid password"."
";
if(isset($_COOKIE['login'])){
    $attempts=$_COOKIE['login']+1;
       }else{
    $attempts=1;
}
setcookie('login', $attempts, time()+60*60);
}

}
?>



    
Username:

    



    
Userpassword:
