First of all, you've missed out the closing curly bracket in the first function. Second of all, mysql will return an error when trying to insert the new row, because the script will be something like "insert into values(". You declare the $tableUsers variable outside the function but don't declare it as a global variable inside the function, so it will not be recognised. Last, but very important (though it might not seem like it), you're storing the passwords in the database in clear text. A fundamental error which I highly discourage at every chance I have. It's one of the basic rules of website security. Encrypt the users' passwords, at the very least with an md5 or sha1, if not using something more advanced.
