Protected site

Acer2000 · 04-13-2007, 06:22 PM

Hi Everyone,

Could you please tell me how I can create a password protected region on my website similar to this one:

www.gmail.google.com

I would like the users their usernames and passwords.

Many thanks

I use MS Frontpage 2003

Something like this? http://www.2createawebsite.com/enhan...d-protect.html

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 06:50 AM

Yes, but I don't want this to be the case:

"Warning: The free script at the bottom of this page is not totally secure and the password can be seen if someone views your source code."

Is there a better way devil lady?

Please advise. Thank you

The link that you sent me simply shows a login and password on a secure server. Are you asking as to how to create a popup box that asks for a password and username to access a certain region/area of that site?

Like a members only ...

Hi Grove,

Thank you for your help. I think I now know how to do it with the coffe cup software!

**Grove** · 04-14-2007, 07:05 AM

Coffee Cup Software?

Never heard of it. Was going to suggest holding a PHP, MySQL database combination with the coding for a form and password protection but if Coffee Cup does the trick, then use it

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 07:16 AM

Dear Grove,

I am all eyes! Go ahead and tell me how it works. I am always interested to learn new things

**Grove** · 04-14-2007, 07:19 AM

I am digging my own grave here.

The coding would take numerous hours but I'll give you a brief outline. The user would enter your site. Click on a Members tab. When that link is clicked a new window would open asking for a username/password.

The user then either inputs the username/password and the database is checked to verify that it is correct.

The owner would have total control as he/she would control the database therefore being able to add/remove members as he pleases. Alternatively another admin only section can be added to alter members' priveleges.

*phew*

I'm weary just thinking about it

I can imagine that Grove! I know, when I first created my webstie, it was like being reborn over and over!

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 07:28 AM

Indeed

**DJ-Zep** · 04-14-2007, 08:32 AM

Acer, do you have cPanel X on your webserver by any chance?

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 08:36 AM

Yes, there is a control panel Zep

**DJ-Zep** · 04-14-2007, 08:40 AM

Is it specifically cPanel X?

Here is what it looks like:

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 09:20 AM

No Zep

**DJ-Zep** · 04-14-2007, 10:37 AM

Ok. Do you know if your server is running on linux or windows?

Acer2000 · 04-14-2007, 10:40 AM
