I was wondernig, you know like on any site when you login with your username and password, than every page you visit knows your still logged in. How does that work? Right now i have a stupid way of doing it, a variable that says login = 1 and i just keep passing it to every page the user clicks to. Im sure there is some better way to do it, could someone please help me out. Thanks alot.

Also its easy for someone to just see any page they want by adding a variable login = 1 in the url so this is not very good security ;(

you can read up on sessions here

basically, they're intended for exactly what you're talking about. sessions are a method of tracking/remembering a visitor from page to page

RE: LOGIN
Yupe Sessions. Pass the variable Login=1 by registering it to the session. If someone hasn't gone through the login process, login isn't set to 1 and so they'll not be able to access the page.

Good luck
