I trying to use dbInput() the give the user a choice on what level to play at the start of my game. So far I have this but whatever I type in I get "incorrect input". Anybody know why?

You are comparing pointers here, in this instance they will never be equal. Instead use strcmp() where a return value of 0 means they match.

I should make a template of this post as I'm sure I've said the same thing 50 times.
