Redirection tool using computer IP...

[lankinator]

could someone please make me a script that only allows certain IP address to view a folder?

eg: if the computer ip address was 11.111.11 they could view the pages in a folder and if the ip address wasn't 11.111.11 they got redirected to the main website page?

thanks :-)

Are talking about in a local network or public domain? If you were talking about public, take a look around the forums. I believe there are some scripts like that (you may need to edit it to suit your needs) floating around somewhere. As for a local network (unless you automatically assign the computers on your network) it would be a mess. I guess you need more specifics in that, but as I said before, just take a look around the forums for something to do with remote address (IP Address).

EDIT: I noticed that this is in the Javascript forum. I don't know how you would do it with javascript but I'm sure someone else here does. If not, this can be easily accomplished using server-side languages (PHP, ASP, etc).

Hope this helps.

Not in Javascript, no. You'd need some server-side language.

Saw you posted before I finished typing mine out.

Change the following in red:

ErrorDocument 403 /banned.html
order allow,deny
allow from 192.22.33.44
deny from all

Hope this helps.

Not sure how to add mulitple IP Addresses (in .htaccess that is). Sure someone else does though.

Well... if your server is php enabled:

<script type="text/javascript">
var ip = "<?php echo $_SERVER['ADDR']; ?>"
if (ip == ip address here) {
    dosomething();
    }
</script>

pointless though, seeings you could do exactly the same thing with PHP and the user wouldn't be able to see it.

/EDIT: Sorry test, we cross posted

to ad more would i just have to add the
?allowed =
line again?

Not a prob mike, posted a php script, then saw the OP posted an htaccess file and had to change the post.

//EDIT: and again.

Yes. Make sure your new lines are above the Deny line.
