Hello Brian,
Take a look at setcookie() in the PHP manual. The algorithm is pretty
simple. Once the user submits the form, you compare form data with the
data in the database. If the password matches, then set a cookie with
the username (using setcookie()). Then you'll just have to check if the
cookie is set - if(isset($_COOKIE['username'])) {...} - and if it's set,
proceed to user page; if not, display the login form again.
