login page without application.cfm????

[susanh]

Good Morning,
i have a newbie question. can you have a login page that verifies a username and password from an Access db, without having a application.cfm page?

i have just a little section of my intranet that i want only
a couple of people to be able to maintain. i don't think i need any thing as detailed as an application.cfm page, or do I?

here is my code. any suggestions would be great. thanks sue

login.cfm
<FORM action=&quot;login_action.cfm&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot;>
Username <input type=&quot;Text&quot; name=&quot;Username&quot;>
Password <input type=&quot;password&quot; name=&quot;Password&quot;>
<input type=&quot;Submit&quot; name=&quot;Submit&quot;>
</FORM>

login_action.cfm
<cfquery name=&quot;logincheck&quot; Datasource=&quot;underwriting&quot;>
SELECT username, password
FROM login
WHERE username = '#username#' AND password = '#password#'

<cfif isdefined (&quot;#username#&quot AND isdefined (&quot;#password#&quot>
<cflocation url=&quot;aunder.cfm&quot;>
<cfelse>
<cflocation url=&quot;login.cfm&quot;>
</cfif></cfquery>
