Everytime, the inputText1 and inputText2 in the apex class is null, and I don't know why! Iv'e bin sitting on it all day long, and I couldn't figgure out why it happens!

Please help me with that, because I'm feeling hopeless with that.

<apex:Pagemessages id="msg"/>
<apex:pageMessages ></apex:pageMessages>
<apex:pageBlock >
<apex:form >
<p><b>Login Page</b><br /></p>
<apex:panelGrid columns="2" style="margin-top:1em;">
<p><b>UserName</b><br />
<apex:inputtext required="true" id="inputText1" value="{!inputText1}"/>
</p>
<p><b>Password</b><br />
<apex:inputtext id="inputText2" value="{!inputText2}"/>
</p>
 <apex:commandButton action="{!loginUser}" value="login" id="login"  immediate="true"/>
 </apex:panelGrid>
</apex:form>
</apex:pageBlock>

</apex:page>




public class LoginPages{


   public String inputText1;
    public String inputText2;

    public String getInputText1(){
        return inputText1;
    }

    public void setInputText1(String str1){
        inputText1 = str1;
    }

        public String getInputText2(){
        return inputText2;
    }

    public void setInputText2(String str2){
        inputText1 = str2;
    }



    public PageReference registerUser() {
        PageReference newPage = new PageReference('/apex/newPage');
        newPage.setRedirect(true);
        return newPage;
    }

    public void  loginUser() {
        ApexPages.Message mymsg = new ApexPages.Message(ApexPAges.Severity.INFO, 'sdsdf' +  inputText1);
        apexpages.addMessage(mymsg);
       // PageReference newPage = new PageReference('/apex/login');
       System.debug('sdfsdf' + inputText1);     

        List<User__c> users = [Select Name, Password__c from User__c Where Name = :inputText1];
        if (users.size() > 0){
            for (User__c user : users){
                if (user.Password__c == inputText2){
                           //newPage.setAnchor('/apex/catalog');
                        //newPage.setRedirect(true);

                }
            }   
        }
        //return newPage;

    }
}

Remove immediate="true". "Immediate" results in no data being passed from the form to the server.

Also - you could write your variables bit simpler and then you won't need the explicit getXYZ/setXYZ methods:

public String inputText1 {get;set;}
