the head.php is for the members area where it echos the invite codes, viewed, and shared documents - it has a slightly different layout and stuff. I'm going to try and put auth.php within head.php for a test... i'll post how it went
still does it... weirdest thing
but i've decided since the only time someone needs to be a registered user is when performing an action, such as viewing ("downloading") a document or sharing a document, so i'll just figure something out to do it when that occurs.
btw thanks for all the help so far, i noticed you joined about 2 years ago and have accumulated like 1/6 of your posts in this thread. Tech-forums "rediscovered"?
