dont usehtml file for http://www.mydomain.com/welcome.html use a cgi like http://www.mydomain.com/welcome.pl when u passing user to the page don't just redirect load that page using automated form submit so you can pass the password and username to that page too and validate there if it is wrong redirect back to the login page
