Hello all,

My website is built in HTML and PHP.
On it, there is a menu wich visitors can use to go to the pages.
Some pages are secured by PHP code to make sure that only people who are
logged in can access them.
But.....
If a visitor types the address (URL) to a certain secured page directly in
the addressbar of the browser, he/she can still access this page despite
he/she is not logged in at all.

Question:
Is there a way to avoid this problem and give a visitor, who accesses a page
without using the menu, a kind of warning and redirect to the homepage.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Tino Wintershoven
