HTML - Blocking A Page, Without Password

does anyone know how to put a password into a page so that you or a selected person can access it?
something like
username:
password:

and a creation page so that you can make your own usernames and passwords...
i'd use phpBB but I don't understand how to use it... cause it's blank xD
oh and if it makes any difference... i use macromedia dreamweaver 2004 edition as my HTML... ect. edditor

Hello, I'm new to this forum. I really hope you can help me out. I know I'm cheating by using FrontPage to develop my site and I want to take the time to really get into and understand the underlying HTML, but unfortuantely, I just needed to get my site up and running. My question is, can I just insert some code into my HTML that will prompt for a password in order to display certain pages of my site? Really, I only need one password that I will give to everyone who uses the site, so I don't believe it has to be really difficult. I would obviously, also want to display a message if they enter an invalid passowrd. Thanks for any help you can give me!

BTW, I meant PROTECTING, not PROTESTING!!! lol

Hello,
My friend has a blog through blogger that she wants to be kept private, but doesn't want to have to make her friends who want to read her blog make an account through blogger just to view it.

So she bought a domain name and has them connected. She wants her friends to be able to go to her domain name, have them enter a username and password that they all already know, and then be taken to her blog.

I figured out most of the password stuff, just a code that you put into your html that encrypts your password... but what I don't get, is if you just put in the address of her blog, your not promted to enter a password and you can automatically read it... is there any way of getting around that?

If she ended up not using her blog anymore, and just was creating html pages, is there any code that she could put in the html code to encrypt each page and require a password so people couldn't get to the "page that wants to be hidden" by just entering the url?

Thanks so much!!

Hi Guys,

I have a page on my web site that I wanted password protected, so I put it into a different folder that I password protected. Navigating to the page and other pages from the password protected page is no problem. But, one of the links from the page is to an IP address. When I click on that link, I get an error message of "The requested URL /stafflogin/\\( ip address ) was not found on this server." I have the link coded as: <a href="http:\\( ip address )">

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? When this page is in the root directory of the web site, it works just fine.

I tried "..\http:\\( ip address )" but it still does not work. I got the following error when I coded it that way: "The requested URL /stafflogin/..\http:\\( ip address ) was not found on this server."

Thanks in advance for your help...

Hey guys, im looking for an HTML or java script that will allow me to have a page that cannot be viewed unless you type in a password.
Reason being is i wish to have a separate page with a chat box and web cam function which can only be used by staff members for online meetings rather than having to travel to meet up. Also it would serve as a page with chat just to sit and chill.

Basically im needing a button (which i can make) "staff members only" which will be located on the main website and once clicked i would like it to open up a new page which has the password form or button that opens a password box. I would like to set the password my self and only have one password and be able to change it when i feel its needed. once the password is typed in and is correct i would then like it to open up the page where the chat box is.i have searched high and low for a form like this, i have found several but once the password is typed in and is correct they will only load a file and not redirect you to a website page.

Any help is welcomed
