Checking For Cookie To allow user To Access Page

[madaxe2]

I can create the cookie read it back to print user name on page but i want to stop people from typing in url and skipping log in page.

So i want my html page to first check for cookie if it exists then allow people to goto any url if not to send them back to my .index page to log in.

HTML has no cookie creating or reading capabilities. You will have to look for your solution at the forum that handles your server side language (perl, php, asp, coldfusion) or Javascript.

Since evidently you already know how to read a cookie, you would just need some code like this:

if (COOKIE DOES NOT EXIST) {
alert('please Login');
self.location.replace("index.htm");
}

Assuming you are using JS.
