Sorry I didn't read the first post about not wanting to use sessions,
what about cookies?
What about making a hash of the username and password and place it in
the url
EG: /main.php?u=chris&p=AJKHSA765JAFG443320
Something like that
Check the hash against the database each page
$db = mysql_query("select * from users where username = '". $_GET['u']
."'");
if ( mysql_num_rows($db) ) {
$database = mysql_fetch_array($db);
If ( $_GET['p'] == md5($database[password]) ) {
// Let them go
} else {
header("Location: error.php?error=invalid");
}
} else {
header("Location: error.php?error=noset");
}
Try this it will work

Why not use sessions, store a $loggedin value in a session or cookie
And check that at the top of each page.. no session = no access
Hope this helps
