TODAYS TIP:
The Login Routine
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Today's tip has a lot of information in it, and if you've been
reading my posts over the last few weeks/months while Ive been on
hiatus on the Lasso list you've seen me make the same post over and
over again....the Login Routine! Because there's a lot of
information to convey in today's tip, I'll try to keep the chit-chat
short. However let me point out from the start that my solution to a
LOGIN routine is NOT everyone's solution, it just happens to be my
methodology to it. I have spent the better portion of 5 years
working out this routine, and over the last year heavily writing it
and rewriting it getting it to a point of stable functionality, which
is the goal of any good developer - get it to work, get it to work
correctly - you get paid. Now if only Doctors and Lawyers worked
that way. Its still not perfect but it does work and it works well.
My solution entails the use of SESSIONS, so if you haven't used
sessions, you will now and you'll thank me for it later. Also this
solution does not take into account being MULTIUSER aware, meaning
types of users. For that, you'd have to rewrite this logic,
completely. I know...Ive done it. With multiple login types you
will need to rewrite the better portion of the validation and session
logic. And this solution doesn't take that into consideration, but
the roots of it are there...my current solution (which you're about
to see) was actually stripped of this functionality so that you could
see the basics.
PART ONE: Login! Vee Don't Need NO Stinkin' Login!
Like hell you don't. Nearly ever data driven website on the
internet today has some kind of login routine that it requires in
order to garner from the user who they are, what their user
preferences are (or could be), and then redirect that user to their
specific record or series of records that pertain to them and them
alone. Because you don't want an end user to see anyone else's data,
you want them to see ONLY their information...you have to provide
some level of security, or at least make it appear as such. Let me
say from the outset that this solution is database independent.
Meaning you can use FileMaker for this, if you want, however you'd be
better off with a SQL solution across the board for a variety of
reasons, not the least of which is (separately) speed and security.
