Short n Sweet, have 2 form elements, one called txtUsername and the other txtPassword. Set up the page to POST to itself upon submit.

At the top of the page, code this:

Code:

<%
If Request.ServerVaraibles("CONTENT_LENGTH") > 0 Then
   tmpUN = Request.Form("txtUsername")
   tmpPW = Request.Form("txtPassword")
   If (tmpUN = "validName") AND (tmpPW = "validPass") Then
      Session("loggedIn") = "yes"
      Response.Redirect("login.asp")
   End If
End If
%>

And on all other pages, you just gotta do a check to make sure that session value is set, otherwise the user got there without supplying a valid un/pw

Code:

<%
If Session("loggedIn") <> "yes" then
   Response.Redirect("login.asp")
End If
%>

thanks aaron.martone, but what I want is to check the userName and password for characters like "<select * from..., "*+/\|#$%&()=?>", etc.
