I cannot recall.In this file you will see an example:127.0.0.1 localhostyou can set a line so it looks like this127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.1 mydomain.comReplace the 192.168.1.1 with your IP address and also the mydomain.com to the actual domain you are working on.What this will do is cause your computer to look locally when you use the URL without the www.http://mydomain.comand to the live site when you use the www.http://www.mydomain.comNow on to the cookie.You will need to check to see if the cookie exist.[GETCOOKIE name=cookieName]If the cookie exist you show page. If the cookie does not exist you call the loggin script.[GETCOOKIE name=cookieName][showif [GETCOOKIE name=cookieName]=] [include protect.inc] [/showif]After they do the loggin and you test against the username/password and all is ok you can set the cookie.[SETCOOKIE name=cookieName&value=OK&path=/&domain=mydomain.com] [SETCOOKIE name=cookieName&value=OK&path=/&domain=www.mydomain.com]By not setting the expiration date the cookie is a session cookie. I also set the cookie for both www and not, just incase.That should work, but a more simple way to do it (if you are passing the cart from page to page) is to set a header in the cart to the username or the persons name when logged in and check against it. This would also let you welcome them by calling that header.[orderfile cart=[cart]] [showif [header33]=] [include protect.inc] [/showif][showif [header33]!] Your page goes here. [/showif][/orderfile]I have a protect tag that does all the login stuff if you want it. Just let me know.------------------------------------------------------------ Ronald Kirkland - President Inkblot Media - Internet Solutions Experts Phone: 949.400.4456 * FAX: 949.654.0269 Visit: http://www.inkblotmedia.com Email: ron@inkblotmedia.com ------------------------------------------------------------ ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Strong
