I misunderstood, I thought you meant that you would put that code in an included
file. Which anybody could get at. However the code being hidden doesn't change
that I could look for a cookie from your domain, see it's value, and still
create another cookie.
What you're all looking for is a *session based* authentication system. PHP does
this, and you can do it yourself if you have a database set up.
