You can always do something like mccodes, you make a file called authentication, or something, put all the login data in there. Then in your login.php or whatever, put a login form leading to your authentication file. I think it is much easier

Thanks for trying, but that really didnt help me at all.

anyone?

Try replacing $HTTP_POST_VARS with $_POST instead. It's deprecated in PHP 5.

Also... don't store username/password in cookies.

im going to have the cookie encrypted
