You can pull all necessary information you want to track on them from the table and create your page. So, one, physical page for all users. If you're authenticating via .htaccess you can use the environment variable "REMOTE_USER" to use as the username to do the select on the db. Something like: $user = getenv("REMOTE_USER"); $sql = "Select * from usertable where username = '$user'"; -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager ------------------------- New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/
