How do you create a log in for a flash website?

Hi everyone, I’m currently creating a flash website for my photography company and I want people to be able to log in to their own albums, for example so Mr and Mrs X can look at their own wedding album whereas other people cannot.

Doing any sort of authentication client side is very unreliable and can easily be maniuplated. Even though flash isn’t as easy to manipulate as plain old html/javascript it can still be done.

I would advise getting your flash to send user/password to the server and let a server side script (php, asp) to process the request and if applicable allow access to the gallery.

If you need any further help feel free to contact me.
