How can PHP be used to redirect users to a login page for password verification before allowing them to post in a Shoutbox?

To redirect users to a login page for password verification before allowing them to post in a Shoutbox, you can check if the user is logged in and if not, redirect them to the login page. Once the user logs in successfully, they can be redirected back to the Shoutbox page to post their message.

<?php
session_start();

if(!isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])) {
    header("Location: login.php");
    exit();
}

// Code to handle posting in the Shoutbox
?>
