Do you have any errors? If yes, post them.

The first two scripts have the same filename. Is that a typo?

One suggestion:

In the registration processing script you check for the validity and existence of username, password and email. If any of these data doesn't exist or is invalid you stop the script using die() displaying some message. Better user experience would be redirecting the user back to registration form, filling-in the existing data and highlighting the field with the error. This way user can correct the missing or incorrect input and carry on with the registration with minimum effort.
