This package can be used to authenticate users against a MySQL database of user records.

It can verify whether there is a record for an active user given the user name and password.

If the authentication succeeds, it creates a record for a new session in another database table.

The new session identifier is set to a session cookie. This cookie can be verified in subsequent accesses to determine whether the user was previously authenticated and the session did not expire.

Details

Fist of all, this package is based on the authentication used in mambo/joomla, also including the database
object of this premium CMS (www.joomla.org) . The files are altered to ensure stand-alone functioning of the classes.
Mostly i worked on auth.class.php, in database.php i just got out some code that dd not make sense outside the 
joomla framework

Installing
=============

1. Import the "script.sql" in your MySQL Database (It adds a default user "Testman", password "t")
2. Alter the db.inc.php accourding to your system setup. 
	Please adjust the SESSION timeout since it is maybe to high for you.
3. Build a login page similar to my example "login.php". you should include the two files 
		    require_once('auth.class.php');
			require_once('db.inc.php');
			
4. in all the "registered only" pages include     "require_once('auth.php')" on top. Please check "index.php"


Please write me if you find some bugs or problems

Enjoy
