I have a basic website built already but I would like to incorporate a login system that you register an account and then you can log in and out as you wish but I have no idea where to start! Can someone please help me out?

PLEASE NOTE: This is on Notepad++

In order to have a login system you need a database that can hold all the username/passwords information. So a mySQL database you can not just use notepad++ for that.

The form for the login would need to be coded in your HTML file (Notepad++)

For it to all actually work you will need a domain and hosting, on your hosting there will be an option for a MySQL Database. You create one and link it to your HTML.

I also believe you will need PHP for the actual login but im not 100% sure so correct me if I am wrong.

You could use Code Academy. That will teach you how to get something like this up and running fast. You could however, get a very simple long in system going with a dropdox account. You wouldn't be able to have a profile, but a name and password would be do able.

I agree with this guy, go learn with code academy.

Being able to do something like this is great as logins are very popular for websites

You're going to want to take the PHP course for sure.
And you can use PHP and a MySQL Database on your local machine for free by using xampp.

You will need PHP/MySQL for the site if you go one way.

However, instead of hosting your own server, which is needed for a site anyways, you can just use dropbox as your "Server".

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This will show you PHP.
If I were you I'd go ahead a learn Java script, Jquery, Ruby, and Rails while you are at it. These will allow you to make a much better website instead of using HTML and CSS.

If you don't want to invest that time:
