I think you'll find that if you are using scripts which issue the 403 Unauthorized header [which will prompt the user for a regular user/pw input automatically by the browser] then on most modern browsers you are able to save the login information. It is the most secure way of doing things [comparing ease-of-implementation against security] if you check for $PHP_AUTH_USER - and you can have it on every page. What you need is this: login.php and authorize.inc.php - reference authroize.inc.php in every page you want protected and authorize.inc.php will then send people back to login.php if they don't have proper $PHP_AUTH_USER set. If they do, then it's fine and the page then loads as normal. - Emile
