asp_databases thread: Need some Guidence.

I'm currently working on a website where I have implementing a "member's
only" section. The password and username are in the database and I have
the login working correctly but I have a major problem. Even though I
have the login working the problem is that you really don't have to login
to be honest. Because once you login, you can copy the url of the
redirection after loging in and go right to that page without logging in.
So, it is more like I have a house with a front and two side walls but
nothing in the back. How do I close that end where when a person tries to
go to that page it will secure it for me. Any suggestions?
T.L.

Hi Jackson,
After a member has logged in, you have to create a token and store it in
a session variable. And check existence of this token at the top of each
page you want to secure. For example...
In your login handler page...
... code to handle login
' Assume user has logged in successfully, create a token and store
it in session variable.
Session("blnHasLoggedIn") =3D True
At the top of the page you want to secure...
' Check existence of the token
If Not Session("blnHasLoggedIn") Then
' User has not logged in, redirect to login page
Response.Redirect("login.asp")
End If
Good luck!
Michael Wong

At the top of each page, you insert a "Logged-In" check function.
if the user isn't logged in then , you redirect to another page.
Use cookies or session variables to track the user.

I have done this in the past by putting storing a cookie in the user, and
then putting something like this at the top of each page...
<% if session.cookie("login")<>"success" then
response.redirect("notloggid.asp") %>
If the user has the cookie, they are allowed to see the page. If you copy
the URL, you wouldn't have the cookie, and then couldn't load the page.

All pages on your site should check to see if the session variable is set;
indicating a successful log in has occurred. If the visitor lands on any
page, but has not created this session variable, then send them to the logon
screen....
Also you can use the global ASA to to invoke code on session start up, but
this is probably not good enough either.
Do the first mentioned solution.
