@JPnycFeb 17.2005 — #All you can do with javascript is write a cookie that stores the name and pw, you can't do a "real login". Do you have a database? You need one of those, and a serverside scripting language to have a legitimate member site.
@Stephen_PhilbinFeb 18.2005 — #That's one of them yeah. You need a server side language like php (or whatever anyone prefers) to be able to build the page on the server based on details held in the database about the person so that a customised version can be dished out to each user.
PHP is kinda like a secretary to the web server. It gets info from wherever required, like from a databse, cookies, sessions etc, then organises the data and formats it into the html as a nice neat organised package which it then passes on to the boss (the web server) who handles the requests and dishes out each complete package as requested.
