embed html into php

[Cyrus]

I want to embed a html page into a php file so that ONLY registered members can see the page, not anyone who is unregistered or logged out.

Does anyone know how this can be done ?

thanks

anyone ?

You could try using sessions

if($session)
  {
     then show page
 }
 else
  {
   show this
} 

just a thought

For anyone thats registered correct?

Well a very simple and kinda insecure way would be:

<?
if (!isset($bbuserid)) {
 include(/path/to/html/file.html);
} else {
print "You need to login or register to view this page... ";
}
?>

Thats a rough way to do it, but it should give you an idea....

Try this...

<?
if (!isset($bbuserid)) {
  include('/path/to/html/file.html');
} else {
  print "You need to login or register to view this page... ";
}
?>
