Hi all,

I'm new to php but I would look at the concept of setting a cookie on the
log-in page and then testing for that cookie on the http://therealsite page
and redirecting failues accordingly. In fact that could be set into every
page to make sure that people have to go thru the log-in page. You still
check for the password though.

George, a php newbie
