Assigning values from database to a hash or an array.

Here is my question. 
when i connect to a database how can i assign values from table that
contains user_id, and user_password fields to a hash or an array or a hashed
array?

for example i have this script.

my ($input_username,$input_password) = ("bobob","pass");



$sth = $dbh->prepare("select password from logins where
username='$input_username'");
$sth->execute();
($password) = $sth->fetchrow_array();
$sth->finish();
if ($input_password eq $password)
{

***Now, how can i put the staintmentso when it's trye transfer me to a
members.pl file?

} 
else
{
print "Wrong Password";<------- Do i really have to type anything here?
}

How can i get values from database called ttf, table logins, and get the
user_id and user_password. and assign them to the array?
I have tryed this, but it's not working.

my (@details) = ();
while (my @ary = sth->fetchrow_array())
{
push(@matrix, [@array]);
}
sth->finish();


Later on i just need to display to user id and users password using those
variables.

Thank you.



Here is the full script.

use  strict;
use  CGI;
use  CGI::Carp;
use  DBI;
use  Template;

# Load the CGI input data, 
my $html = new CGI;
print $html->header();


my $dsn = 'DBI:mysql:ttf:localhost';
my $db_user_name = 'web';
my $db_password = 'nouser';
my ($uid, $password);
my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn,  $db_user
my ($sth);
my ($input_username,$input_password) = ("bobob","pass");



$sth = $dbh->prepare("select password from logins where
username='$input_username'");
$sth->execute();
($password) = $sth->fetchrow_array();
$sth->finish();
if ($input_password eq $password)
{
print "Good"
} 
else
{
print "Wrong Password";
}

my (@details) = ();
while (my @ary = sth->fetchrow_array())
{
push(@matrix, [@array]);
}
sth->finish();
$dbh->disconnect();

any help would be appreciated.
