Definitively the way to go !

If you prefer, you can do this in having your client (web browser or LiveCode 
ria app) posting their credentials to a PHP script indeed but in any case you 
will have to be sure that the server-side script will respond to the clients 
requests and interact with the db-backend only when each client will have been 
authenticated as allowed to interact with its own account on your on-line app. 

If most of your customers are, alike mine, using dynamic IP to connect the 
cloud and subsequently your or mine on-line apps, an IP-based authentication 
system will not be usable nor safe at all in such a context.
