Alright, i am working on a website where a number of different users from different companies will be looking hooking into one website.

What i want is to know how i can differentiate between the users based on the information passed by the webserver.

I've been told to that information will be passed along html_user(and if i have a distinct user then i can just query the database with that info and get what i want)

But how does this work? I am sorry i know this is cryptic i'm kind of searching to see if this strikes a bell with anyone.




So to sum, many users are logging in with basic authentification, then being redirected to my page. From there i need to be able to differentiate between the users based on whatever is inherently passed.

Help! As you can see i don't know this one too well... lol

I don't understand completely what you want to do, maybe, but if I were you, i would consider that having each person register and then Log-in to the main site would be enough... IF... each person who registered could be identified by the Company they are a part of in their user Profile.
In order to complete this answer, please post the Database Table schema you are using so we can assist you further.

thanks.
