Hello,
I am trying to build a page that will remember a user. For instance, DMXZone, when I visit this site it remembers me because I have signed up. I want to be able to build a page that will require you to Sign Up before visiting the actual website, but if you have already signed up it will recognize the user as a member and either direct them to the site or a link will allow them to visit the site without re-entering their information into the form. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Nils Satterstrom

There is a really good basic login system described here

evolt.org/node/60384

it's not one that you can just install and use, but if you want the basic framwork that you can extend it's a good start, it has some interesting features, like storing a unique identifier that is random for each user in a cookie, so it would be hard to hi-jack the session.
