Verifying the Login Name and Password
Listing 23.3 provides simple code for your LoginCheck.cfm template. This is the template that will be included when the user attempts to gain access by submitting the login form from Listing 23.2.
The most important line in this template is the <cfset> line that sets the SESSION.auth.isLoggedIn variable to Yes. After this value is set for the session, the isDefined() test in the Application.cfc file (refer to Listing 23.1) will succeed and the user will be able to view pages normally.
