@cluettrJul 12.2007 — There are a few methods you could use to accomplish this. Using a database is one option and you certainly could track a users progress through a website logging each page he or she visits. However, you would need to have a good understanding of a database in order to get this working. I do not know of any application or plug in that you could install that would allow you to store and then retreive the last page visited. To accomplish this you would need the following:

1) A database (such as MySQL).

2) An authentication mechanism.

3) An understanding of how to redirect the user after they authenticate.

And alternative and much easier method would be to user a cookie.
