I am using a PHP Sign-Up script provided by PHP Form Generator. There was a lot of obsolete code so I had to go in and fix it.

My problem is, the first test user I created worked completely fine, but all other test users I create end up having an unknown Array as the password.

This is the code:

<?php
    include("http://wolffwebdesign.co.cc/php/global.inc.php");
    $errors=0;
    $error="The following errors occured while processing your form input.<ul>";
    $FirstName = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['FirstName']);
    $MiddleInitial = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['MiddleInitial']);
    $LastName = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['LastName']);
    $Company = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Company']);
    $Email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Email']);
    $Username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Username']);
    $Password = $_POST['Password'];
    $resultuser = mysql_query("SELECT Username FROM members WHERE Username = '$Username'");
    $resultpass = mysql_query("SELECT Password FROM members WHERE Password = '$Password'");

    if($FirstName=="" || $LastName=="" || $Company=="" || $Email=="" || $Username=="" || $Password=="" ){
        $errors=1;
        $error.="<li>You did not enter one or more of the required fields. Please go back and try again.</li>";
    }
    if(!preg_match('/^[a-z\d_\.\-]+@([a-z\d\-]+)(?:\.(?1))+$/i',$Email)){
        $error.="<li>Invalid email address entered</li>";
        $errors=1;
    }
    $regex = '~([^A-Z0-9]+)~i'
    if(!preg_match($regex, $Username) || !preg_match($regex, $Password)) {
        $errors.="<li>Invalid Username or Password entered</li>";
        $errors=1;
    }

    if($errors==1) {
        echo $error;
    }
    if(mysql_num_rows($resultuser) == 1){
         die("<li>That Username exists already</li>");
    }
    if(mysql_num_rows($resultpass) == 1){
       die("<li>That password exists already</li>");
    }
    else{
        if($remember == 1)
            {$expire=time()+50400;
            setcookie("extendedloginwwd", $Username, $expire);
        }
        elseif($remember == 0)
            {$expire=time()+50400;
            setcookie("loginwwd", $Username, $expire);
        }
        mkdir("home/wolffweb/www/$Username", 0755);
        $where_form_is="http".($HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTPS"]=="on"?"s":"")."://".$SERVER_NAME.strrev(strstr(strrev($PHP_SELF),"/"));
        mail( "wolffswebdesign@gmail.com", "New User Submission", "Name: $LastName, $FirstName, $MiddleInitial\nCompany: $Company\nEmail: $Email\nUsername: $Username\nPassword: $password\nFolder: $dirname\nErrors?: $error\n", "From: Sign Up <newuser@wolffwebdesign.x10.mx>" );
        $link = mysql_connect("localhost","wolffweb_admin","jl10101");
        mysql_select_db("wolffweb_users",$link);
        $query="insert into members (First_Name,Middle_Initial,Last_Name,Company,Email,Username,Password) values ('".$FirstName."','".$MiddleInitial."','".$LastName."','".$Company."','".$Email."','".$Username."','".$Password."')";
        mysql_query($query);
        $make=fopen("admin/data.dat","a");
        $to_put="";
        $to_put .= $FirstName."|".$MiddleInitial."|".$LastName."|".$Company."|".$Email."|".$Username."|".$Password."
        ";
        fwrite($make,$to_put);
    }
    ?>

This is the shown content:

<!-- This is the content of the Thank you page, be careful while changing it -->

    <h2>Thank you!</h2>

    <table width=50%>
        <tr>
            <td>
                First Name: 
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $FirstName; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>

        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Company: 
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $Company; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Email: 
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $Email; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Username: 
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $Username; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Password: 
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $Password; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
<!-- Do not change anything below this line -->

<?php
{}
?>

If, for example, I made my password hello52 where <?php echo $Password; ?> and also in the MYSQL Database the password ends up being the word Array, which when I plug Array in to the Log In form I get an incorrect password error. My assumption is that the password ends up being some sort of random array. Is there any way to fix this?

The following is the form code:

            </td>
        </tr>
        </table>
</form>

Also I am using the mkdir() function because I want each user to have their own directory which contains a service page, the directory is not being created, is there any way to fix this?
Thanks

if(!preg_match('~([^A-Z0-9]+)~i', $Username, $Password)) {
    $errors.="<li>Invalid Username or Password entered</li>";
    $errors=1;
}

The above code passes an array of preg_match('~([^A-Z0-9]+)~i', $Username) to $Password

Try:

$regex = '~([^A-Z0-9]+)~i'
if(!preg_match($regex, $Username) || !preg_match($regex, $Password)) {
    $errors.="<li>Invalid Username or Password entered</li>";
    $errors=1;
}
