You want to make sure login name doesnt equal the mailid field?


if($login_n == $mail_id){
echo "Its not unique...";
}

no what i said is same login name should not be used by the another user

1. Store info in a database (or text files if you can't use a database).
2. When someone new registers, be sure that the info does not already exist in the database: make sure that searching for that email (or anything) returns false.
3. Ask them to use another email if it did exist; if not, continue.

I have already set to unique for that fields in database now my question is now i need to check that fields in my php coading how can i do that

Try to find the email address in the database. If the query returns no results, the email is unique. If you find a match, it is not unique.
