jumpergirl 0 #1 May 31, 2005 I want to make a page on my personal website that is password protected. Something only people with that password can access. Can I do that? How? Can someone help me? Thanks!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingbunky 3 #2 May 31, 2005 there are a few javascripts i've found that sort of do that. that is, they look like it but anyone with any html knowledge could view the source to get around it, but they would keep a casual snooper out. generally, unless you have access to the server, you can't do it with any degree of security."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

jumpergirl 0 #3 May 31, 2005 Since I use my website for "business" I don't want any customers stumbling onto a personal page that I want to create for family and friends to see new pictures or read "news" that I've posted. Right now I have it on a page that is not linked anywhere on my site. When I have new stuff I send that link - www.blahblahblah.com/whatever.html - to those I want to see it. It seems like such a hassel. I was hoping to have a "log-in" system for them but I have no idea how to do it. Front Page isn't helping with it, either.

jumpergirl 0 #6 May 31, 2005 Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites champu 1 #7 May 31, 2005 To do what you're describing .htaccess would work very well, and be dirt simple to implement. If your host is using Apache for their web server, and you are able to telnet (or SSH) into your account, you should be able to use this method.
