Create a "personal" members area

Hi everyone
I know how to create a php/sql members area for a site, but the way I do this just creates members pages which are accessable to all members.

I want to know how to create a members area where each member would have their own area, ie. 200 members each with their own members area, which cant be access by other members.

This is so that I can have personal things on there for each member, which is secure and protected from other members.

I havent a clue how to do this so don’t even know if I have posted this is in the right category but would appreciate some advice.

Thanks, Adey

IE

www.mysite.com/bob/index.php

If the user isn't bob, send them elsewhere. If they are bob, allow access.

Success!
