Yep, a few things...
The parsing is due to not closing off the { brackets.
Change line 26 to
<? }}
Secondly, you will need to add a form to submit this data.
Thirdly, NEVER use cookies to check whether someone has logged in, as
these are client-side, and easily forged.... try $_SESSION values for
this purpose. Cookies should only be used for things that don't matter,
like user preferences and the like.
Happy Hunting!
