You don't feel a need to connect to a database (mysql_connect) before you start issuing queries?

it connects via include dbc.php

You don't show where $link is set but I presume that is in dbc.php as well. Either your mysql_connect didn't work properly or you aren't passing the $link value successfully. If you are doing an error check for the mysql_connect and everything appears to be ok, you should be able to drop the $link parm on lines 92 and 93 and it should work.

mysql_query("select count(*) as total from users where user_email=$usr_email OR user_name=$user_name")

Might be work, remove quotes for variable names within the query
