The steps are these:-
(Assuming a unique username and password combination in database.)
Collect username and password from a form
Check if there is a row in the database containing that username and
password.
If there is, set a session variable and show a menu or redirect to a
home page etc. , else redirect to an error page.
Check for existence of session variable on each page. If it exists,
show page, else redirect back to header page.
