Okay I answered my own question "How would I validate and reply with an
error message if the right username with wrong password came up?" It
was pretty simple fix. At the end of the function 'auth()' I put the
line 'echo "ERROR";'. I might even add a function at this point to send
an email to the actual user indicating that someone tried to log-on
using their username with an invalid password!
