How do i setup an user login page with search function?

3
Hi.......
Well I have decided to post my question here, can't figure out how to do it on my own.

Problem:
I have a web page I need to be able to pass the users login and password to another page to do a search and then pass those results to a page to disply the user's data.

A regular login/password will get to the search page but I want to pass the login data to the search page then have the serarch page display the results.

Hummmmmmmmmmm.

What have you tried so far?

You will need to use a server side language like PHP, ASP or Perl for the kind of function you're looking for.

E.g.

You have a database containing a list of users, a html login form and when you hit submit, you do the relevant checks of the entered data against the values held on the database, then proceed from there.

It is possible to do HTTP login, but this isn't what you're looking for, especially if you're wanting to also implement a search function (which I assume will search a database too...)

And do not forget the function that re-displays the login form again when the user (a) does not fill in all fields and (b) fills in incorrect fields.

Anyway, you can have all fout functions: logon, search db, re-display form when incorrect and display when correct, all in one scipt. But, as said before, you'd have to look at languages such as PHP, Perl etc.
Any questions regarding a solution, using one of these languages, are better asked in the relevant forum.
