Best Way To Create User Sign-up (PHPMYADMIN)

-----------------------------------

What is the best way to set-up a system where the user can register for an account and then can login? I'd also like to be able for the user to change some preferences s/he has as well...

use an html form that gets the information and then goes to some php page where it enters that information into the database 

hint: use $HTTP_POST_VARS['form_input_item_name'] to access the values from a form that uses the POST method  (and of course you would change the form_input_item_name to whatever the name attribute was set to for your form item (you still need the single quotes though)
