Right, i have recently beaten this level and i decided to share my knowledge of this challange. This is my first ever article so please bare with me.

Right to start with on the first page nothing is needed to be done just submit any thing as the password and you will be presented with an SQL Query Error, this sql query error is very inportant as it shows you the query you need to use, but not all of the query is required. ( Alot of people make the mistake of entering it in the text box this is inncorrect, think were as you could enter this information)

If you veiw the source on the Secure-area.php theres another clue which is vital staring at you. This clue is left in a comment form. This clue in the comment needs to be enterd with the SQL Query also.

Now its down to you really were to enter the SQL query think about it. AND NO ITS NOT IN THE TEXT BOX ITS NOT EVEN ON THAT PAGE DO IT IN THE SECURE AREA. Also another common mistake is taking the spaces out of the query and not having the correct parts captilised.

Good Luck.

I would just like to say thank you for this post. This challenge gave me quite the headache. The parts in particular that threw me off and the line of yours that helped were: "Also another common mistake is taking the spaces out of the query and not having the correct parts captilised." Turns out I had the right idea and even the right calls, but I was butchering the syntax.

Thanks again!
