I have built a simple login system, (as per Newlands Tours) however, when the user is passed to the details page, it returns all results, what do i need to do, use a form variable or a session variable to restrict the data to just that users??

thanks

If you have built your login system using the Server Behaviours built into
Dreamweaver - and if your data contains a users ID to identify that record
to that user, then you can use a session variable (once you create it) when
the user logs in to filter your details page by.

I have a simple tutorial that details how to add an extra Session variable
to the login code, such as the UserID, here:
http://robgt.com/tutorials/loginsessions.asp

The example uses VBScript, but the same principle should apply to any
scripting language.
