Please Help:waves: VMinder 03-01-2007, 10:59 PM I believe dynamicdrive.com has some scripts available for use as well as bravenet.com Ges 03-05-2007, 07:33 PM Hi tim9112, VMinder is quite right about those sites. However, password protection using Javascript - no matter how much encryption is used - is not secure by any means. Using a server-side script such as PHP is always better and far more secure. You will find many scripts freely available at; http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/User_Management/index.html By far the best way to protect areas of your website is to use what is known as .HTACCESS. This is not always available or provided by your web server and in some cases you have to pay for it! Shameless as .htaccess is an APACHE feature and as APACHE sever software is FREE then it's plugins/built-ins should br FREE also. Another point to note is that .htaccess is mainly APACHE LINUX based but a lot of WINDOWS 2000 servers now support it albeit in a slightly different way. For a great article ( and not heavy or hard to read ), Javascript.com have one which explains everything you need to know. Here's the link; http://javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess.shtml Hope this is useful. Regards, Ges. PS Try searching this forum for 'passwords' as there are quite a number of threads regarding this - including some of my own with code. tim9112 03-10-2007, 05:42 AM thanks |
