I have the following in my code
session_register("myusername");
session_register("mypassword");
within
<?php
ob_start();
$host="ClubEvents.db.9606426.hostedresource.com"; // Host name
$username="ClubEventsRead"; // Mysql username
$password="Pa55word!"; // Mysql password
$db_name="ClubEvents"; // Database name
$tbl_name="members"; // Table name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
// Define $myusername and $mypassword
$myusername=$_POST['myusername'];
$mypassword=$_POST['mypassword'];
// To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection)
$myusername = stripslashes($myusername);
$mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword);
$myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername);
$mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string($mypassword);
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username='$myusername' and password='$mypassword'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
// Mysql_num_row is counting table row
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
// If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row
if($count==1){
// Register $myusername, $mypassword and redirect to file "login_success.php"
session_register("myusername");
session_register("mypassword");
header("location:login_success.php");
}
else {
echo "Wrong Username or Password";
}
ob_end_flush();
?>
What is it to be replace by, now that the php function has been deprecated?
I have been reading http://php.net/manual/en/function.session-register.php but am a little confused, been battling with this all day.
Thanks

Just place the values you want in the $_SESSION array, like:
$_SESSION['myusername'] = "xxx";
I'm not seeing you session_start on your code. Don't forget it.
I think you want to save your username and the password in the session :
First, usijng "login", "username", "password" in your code is no longer safe, some malicious script try to find these words in your code and play around.
session_start();
$_SESSION['myuse'] = $myuse;
$_SESSION['mypas'] = $mypas;
