Thanks William,

I don't know much on this but this is what I believe: Setting up a
user log in system, and each user has a authorization token number?
Would this ultimately stop scripts from being sent from places other
than my site?

Could I hide everyone's authorization token number so even a
registered user could not type it into a URL bar from somewhere other
than my site? Ultimately requiring the use my site's PHP script and
none others?
