Logging users

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 19007
interpreted = N
texte = I'd like to create a log using the [appendfile] context every time a user successfully goes through the authentication dialog box. I have an [include]ed custom checker file set up as recommended some time ago here on the list. When I put the [appendfile] context immediately before [authenticate user], I do get the log entry, but without the username (naturally). If I put it after the [authenticate] and before the [/showif], nothing happens at all. Where can I put the [appendfile] context so it doesn't register the billion times the user hits a page during his session, but only the one time he logs in? Seems so simple...Thanks,Terry WilsonTerry Wilson terryw@rainbowcreek.com Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
