Code Organisation

Hello,
This is a slightly strange question so bare with me. I've been dabbling in PHP for a while and to help further my PHP skills I created a basic URL shortening service with a login and registration system, this works fine however I'm not sure I organised it in the best manner.
What I basically did was have an if statement at the top of the page which would check for example if the username field has been posted if not it would run:
interface/login.php will contain the HTML for the login interface along with parts of the code that was ready to accept errors e.g.
Then within the login.php code I would compare the hashed password with the one in the database if it did not match I would then run code similar to this:
However I'm not sure if this is the most "clean" way of handling it and I would appreciate if someone would tell me better ways in which I can structure my code and the interface for it.
Thank you,
