When a user logs in successfully, you could set a session variable (move on
to cookies if you want them to be able to 'remember' their login) like
$_SESSION['loggedin'] = true; Then, in every page in your members section
(use an include file), do something like this before any output to the
browser....
if ( ! isset ( $_SESSION['loggedin'] ) || ! $_SESSION['loggedin'] ) {
header ( "Location : /unauthorized.php" );
exit;
}
