if you have access to the Macromedia DRKs, have you taken a look at the
authentication API that was on DRK 7? It's a good example of how the
security framework can be implemented and a good interface to the
built-in security tags and functions as well.

Hi Duncan,
Files:
1. index.cfm containing login
2. login_process.cfm processed after login and sets session variables
3. *.cfm any other file on the system with security check
normal process, 1, 2, 3
what's happening, 1, 3 - splatt
reason for splatt:
session times out or user bookmarks any other file on the system apart
from index.cfm
comes back and tries to login
CF tries to be over helpful and after sending user to login page then
returns them to 3 and bypasses 2.
sooo .. i need to stop CF passing the user straight back to 3 from 1
and make sure they go through 2 first.
Hope that explains it!

so there's two pages: login_process.cfm and process.cfm? Can you
include
the session variable stuff from process.cfm into login_process.cfm?

Hi Duncan,
The login_process.cam is acted on from the login page.
Trouble happens when a user book marks other pages in the site that have
security set and require variables to run. They try to return
directly to
the page, the security sends them to login page, then when they log
in the
process.cfm page is skipped and none of the variables are set.

so the login form has action="process.cfm", right? is there some
code in
process.cfm that is redirecting before the session variables are set?

Hi all,
Got a problem with the above. Scenario is:
standard login: login on front page of site refers using to a process
cfm
which checks for further access rights and sets up a load of needed
session
variables.
messed up login: user bookmarks secure page, security bungs them
out to
the home page to login, they log in and then get directed by the
default
security to their bookmarked page, skipping the process cfm and it
errors
cos needed session variables haven't been set.
I've been through the docs a few hundred times, but can't see a
solution.
Anyone have any ideas please?
Jenny
