Why not use a .pm file that will include an
athentication module.. i call mine weblogin.pm
in each secure template just add on top something
like:
=======================
use weblogin;
weblogin::authenticate();
=======================
this will call the authenticate module to run and
if the user failed login it will just display a login screen and
exit();
good luck! :)

Subject: Authentication Nightmare
Can anyone help me with this really irritating
problem. I have written a cgi script that is fired up from a ErrorDocument 403
that redirects a user to a logon screen if they attempt to enter a secure
area. I then have a perl module that authenticates the entered username and
password against a table in an Oracle Database through DBI/DBD.
Once I have authenticated the user I need to
allow them to view the particular URL the were originally requesting. Getting
the URL isn't a problem but redirecting them is.
I have asked this question before and the main
advise given was to use the cookie based authentication in the Eagle book but
the problem is that this has also got to work for WAP
phones......
