Log in to a website page with a password

**ostcalling** · 09-01-2004, 02:20 PM

Hi, I am a small amateur and I make a website for my club but we would like that the members can view some webpage’s only via a login with password, lets say I have a report that only the members can read, so to read this report a login and password would be filled in by the member, the password would be supplied by me.
Can someone please provide me with the data to use, I still have a lot to learn, thanks that this site provide me the support
Thanks in advance for your great support

Here's a script which prompts the user, and gives them 3 chances to get it right.

Code:

<!-- THREE STEPS TO INSTALL THREE TRIES:

   1.  Put the first code into the HEAD of your HTML document
   2.  Change protectedpage.html to your protected page
   3.  Add the final code to the BODY of your HTML document  -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document  -->

<HEAD>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
function password() {
var testV = 1;
var pass1 = prompt('Please Enter Your Password','');
while (testV < 3) {
if (!pass1) 
history.go(-1);
if (pass1 == "password") {
alert('You Got it Right!');

<!-- STEP TWO: Change protectedpage.html to your protected page  -->

//  Change the following URL to your protected filename

window.open('protectedpage.html');
break;
} 
testV+=1;
var pass1 = 
prompt('Access Denied - Password Incorrect, Please Try Again.','Password');
}
if (pass1!="password" & testV ==3)               
history.go(-1);
return " ";
}
// End -->
</SCRIPT>
</head>

<!-- STEP THREE: Copy the last code into the BODY of your HTML document  -->
   
<BODY>

<CENTER>
<FORM>
<input type="button" value="Enter Password Protected Area" onClick="password()">
</FORM>
</CENTER>

Slight problem, anybody could look at the source code and easilly figure out the password. They got an encrypted one here though. Either way, I find it easier just to look at destination of the login and bypass it altogether, not that I'd do that kind of thing.

thanks for quick reply, it will help I am shure of that, but watt I want is that all the differend menbers have there one password, so the members have to log-in with there one password, name ans password to see the other webpages
Anyway Thanks again for your great support
p.s I will buy you a beer

Do you just want all the members logins to point to the same page, or do you want to point to different pages when different logins are entered? I could probably create or find a script to suit either need.

p.s I already have beer.

I just want that the members use there naam and a password ho is selected by me to go to one webpage, all the members go to the same page, once this page is left thy have to log in again, i want to put information on this page ho is only for the members.
Because you give me a good idee, it would great that you can acces three pages with three different passwords
again thanks ad by the way thats three beers ....sheers
