I want to create a CF script that allows users to register and login with a username and password. The registration part isn't a problem, but I'm having trouble with the login/password. I wasn't sure that this was even possible until I came here and noticed that the login for this site is done with CF. The experimenatal script I've done only works properly if the login is the first username in the database. Otherwise, it returns an error message and repeats it until the query reaches the correct one. Thanks for any help you can give.
 
I currently develop in Coldfusion for a living... my suggestion would be is to develop,<br>
<br>
1) a login.cfm template<br>
2) application.cfm and based your security around this so that every time a page is loaded it checks this page to see if the user has already been logged in if not it throws a sign in screen up and they have to authenticate...
