I have no idea where I can put those two lines, as any place I tried
so far gives me an unexpected ';' for the display_errors line.
I then used the var_dump line by itself, but of course, if I put it in
the 'not verified' part, it will display only if I press Cancel. The
output then gives NULL NULL string(32) "[my md5 password strong]", but
I think that doesn't mean much, because of the Cancel button.

That was my first thought too, but since it is not a clean cut one
page php script, there is no place I can pinpoint as 'before any other
output'.

Yes, but that's all I get...
For now, I'll have to dismiss this mission as too complicated for me.
Thanks again for your help, but I'll have to find different ways to go
about what I need to accomplish.

Yes :-)
