Thanks for the quick reply.

I actually already did a controller part where I have a function call in the construct that checks if the proper session is set.

I am curious about this miniview that you spoke of. Is that basically just an include on the theme (like header)?. And what code does that have?

Would I make my controller function return TRUE or FALSE if a user is logged in? And then call that function from my "miniview" and create a the proper form accordingly with an if else?
