Thanks. But I would really like to do this from scratch, so that I can learn it, I dont think I need that much more, before it works.
I found an example with asp, where the save the session if the password is correct. It isnt that long a code, so was wondering if it isnt possible to make something like that in python. Cause when this code is applied to the loginform, CODE2 will only have to be applied to every following page and everything is good. code is from: http://tutorialized.com/tutorial/Creating-a-Members-Area-in-ASP/2234 CODE1 Set objRS = objConn.Execute (strSQL) '// see if there are any records returned If objRS.EOF Then 'no username found strError = "- Invalid username or password<br>" & vbNewLine Else 'check password If objRS("password")=Request.Form("password") Then 'username/password valid 'save session data Session("loggedin") = True Session("userid") = objRS("id") 'redirect to members area Response.Redirect ("default.asp") Response.End Else 'invalid password strError = "- Invalid username or password<br>" & vbNewLine CODE2<% If Session("loggedin") <> True Then Response.Redirect "login.asp" %> <html> <head> <title>Members Area</title> </head> <body> <h1>Members Area</h1> <p>Welcome to our members area!</p></body> </html> In my code I have allready tested if the username and password is correct, so I just need to do the cookie thing :D Thanks all, hope all my questions dosnt make you tired, I just really wanna figure this out, and I am doing this as a little hobby of mine, so I dont have anyone else to ask, hope that is okay...
