I put my Login/Password on a static page. But when I put in a username/password, it stays on that page and I need it to jump back to the index page as a logged in user. I simply have this on a static page called login. Anyone know the answer? Thank you.

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td>
<div class="blocktext">
<form action="http://www.mysite.com/users.php" method="POST">
<b>Username:</b>
<b>Password:</b><br>
<input type="text" size="6" name="loginname" value="" style="border: 1px #666666 solid; font-size: .7em">
<input type="password" size="6" name="passwd" style="border: 1px #666666 solid; font-size: .7em"> 
<input type="submit" value="Login">
</form>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

user.php tries to return the user to the page s/he came from which, most of the time, is what you'd expect.

You would need some PHP code that detects if the user is logged in or not and then either displays the login form or redirects them to the index page.
