And the 'You are logged in as Jo Bloggers, if this is not the case
please hit the login button' should be easy enough..

Since there is very little the user CAN* do apart from post blogs its no
big deal if they do get hacked...all the more important admin stuff is
behind another barrier anyway.

Yes. It seems setting a single cookie is easy enough with the PHP tools
so that's what I'll do.

Spent all yesterday fine tuning something else anyway.. I finally have a
file upload button that works across all browsers and looks the same in
each. Yay!

AS well as arriving what, in retrospect, I should have guessed: That the
only sans serif font you can reasonably find that is truly cross (most)
platform(s) and looks very similar in all, is Arial.

Many thanks..by the way to all, It looks lie sessions is more than is
needed..a simple cookie suffices.
