Hi Bernardo
You could write your login code into an include file, like for
instance mysqllogin.inc., and put that into the root of your
server, below the public area. Then access your login script by
putting an include "/absolute/path/to/mysqllogin.inc"; on the
first line of your PHP pages... Et voilà!
