So I have this login information passing parameters in the url to the next
page (this is on a intranet app) which I thought was no big deal until a
wise crack graphics guy decided to hack it because he could by changing the
?adminID=  until he got one that worked...he didn't do anything except alert
my boss so now I have to hide this info how does one do this?  Once again I
am not a programmer just inherited the job....and the code...
Here is the login page code:

<?php
if (isset($_POST['UserName'])) {$UserName = $_POST['UserName'];} else
{$UserName = '';}
if (isset($_POST['Password'])) {$Password = $_POST['Password'];} else
{$Password = '';}

$msg = '';

if (!empty($UserName)) {

    $sql = "SELECT * FROM admin WHERE UserName='$UserName' and
Password='$Password'";
    $result = mysql_query ($sql);
    $row = mysql_fetch_object ($result);

    If (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
        $_SESSION['AdminLogin'] = "OK";
        header ("Location: Main.php?AdminID=". $row->AdminID);
    } else {
        $msg = "Invalid Login";
    }
}

?>
