In my last replay I told you to find the manual in the wrong place.

The right place is www.php.net

Use setCookie()  function. It places a global variable on the client that
your programs can verify after. See the manual for the use of the function.
Here is an example:

// Example of file chkacces.php.

with POST method.

if( ($pass != "xyz" ){// where "xyz" is the right password.
echo "You are not autorized to see this page";
return;
}

// Autorized.
setCookie( $USER, "autorized" );

header( "Location: index.php" );// redirects to index.php

?>

Example for your index.php file:



The variable set with setCookie() is not availabe until the script ends. See
details in the manual.
The manual is available in www.php.org
