I understand, that’s fine. I don’t completely understand why username’s need to be at least 6 characters (@traq, for example, would need to come up with something different) but those decisions are entirely down to you.

The reason your code isn’t working is because you think that

':username'

Is a variable and it isn’t. It’s a string.

strlen(':username')

Will always be 9. Therefore

if(strlen(':username') < 6)

Will always be false.

$username

Is a variable. It starts with a dollar sign and isn’t surrounded by quotation marks.
