I'm using a pretty simple linking system for a subscription-based
newsletter site.
Stories and articles are in straight html files, reached by links from the
front page. Clicking on a link passes a story number. So the second story
on the index page would have this link: <A HREF="./story.php?storynum=2">
and story.php consists of just these lines:
<? include "auth.inc" ;
include "header.inc" ;
include $storynum.".htm" ;
include "footer.inc" ;
?>
If someone comes in the "right way", through the index page, they will have
to be authenticated, then the header, article and page footer are displayed.
There's nothing, however, to stop someone from typing an URL like this:
http://www.somepub.ca/2.htm and seeing the article. I assume they could
also come in that way via a search engine.
Any suggestions on how to stop that? Resources I should look at? I do want
to keep the stories in straight html as the editor is struggling now with
basic layout, etc.
