Just a thought, but thinking about how some hotels do it, you might be
able to use a proxy and some cookies to do it. Have a proxy redirect any
request to a certain homepage and then that page gives out a cookie that
validates entry to other sites for the browser's session (at least,
that's how I /think/ hotels do it). If that's not how they do that in
reality, finding out how to actually do it might be a valuable lesson too.
Just a thought,
