Thanks I think I'm all set. I'm using
<cfhttp METHOD=GET resolveurl="Yes"
URL="http://www.blahblahblah">#CFHTTP.FileContent#</cfhttp>
inside and if then else. If the password and id (checked from an access
database) are correct then the above tag is executed.
This book I'm using "Mastering Cold Fusion 4.5" seems to answer all my
questions but it's an issue of finding the correct sections.

Subject: Re: passwrord protecting a page and hipping off to another
there are lots of ways of achieving this, but they depend on your setup.
Where is the other page?
Is it on the same server?
If not, is it on a server which would be able to read a domain cookie set
on the first page?
Are both pages ColdFusion scripts?
Where are the usernames and passwords stored (DB, file, WinNT users), or is
there just one username and password?
