Hi all!
I'm working on a site that uses a lot of perl scripts to render various web pages. My client wants his visitors, who have already set up accounts, to always enter the site through a login page. If a user adds a particular page to his "favorites" list and tries to enter the site, we want to redirect them back to the login page.
My client is adamant about not using cookies. I've toyed with the idea of making some sort of "secret code" and passing it along to each of the pages as the user surfs the site but that seems rather crude. And they use a commercial ISP so I'm pretty much limited to what I can do using perl.
Have any of you done something like this? I'd greatly appreciate any ideas you all may have.
Thanking all in advance!!! There's always a better way...
