Given the context you've supplied by using words such as "Guest", I'd suggest sessions are the way to go.

are stored in a MySql database. When the user logs in, the application checks their user id and password

I know I should follow these advices, but until some more time, both Python, zpt and sql databases are unfortunately beyond my knowledge ;-)

Python and ZPT are much easier than DTML, you have been warned... Chris
