use CGI qw/:standard/;
$secretpass = 'joemama';
$password = param('password');
if($password ne $secretpass) { print "Sorry sucker wrong
password";&print_lofin_screen;exit; }
The problemm with this is :
1) you have your secretpass in plaintext - you may want to implement some security
there
2) you have to pass the $password with every form submission and link to itself.
Hope that helps
