I tried the script suggested by Chris Leeds (see below)
The form appears all right, but then I get the message :"Can't find webpage"
What should be written where at the end it says: "This is the protected
page. Your private content goes here"?

(My host does support FP-Server extensions, but NOT at the same time the
protecting a subsite or page.)

EARLIER TEXT

if you only need one user name and password here's a nice simple script
example:
http://www.totallyphp.co.uk/scripts/password_protect_a_page.htm
if you need the users to all have a UN/PW then you're getting into a
situation where you'll need a database, sign-up system, password retrieval
system, etc.

The content for the page.

The script goes at the top of every page you wish to be protected
(immediately after the <body> tag).

Replace
<p>This is the protected page. Your private content goes here.</p>

with the normal page content (that lying between <body> and </body>)
The page must be named with a .php extension.


You could also replace action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"
with
action="pagename.php" where pagename.php is the name of the page - the
form should submit to the same page.

Thank you kindly, Ron.

However, I seem to be on the wrong track. No page has the extension php.
(all htm). Experiments with php failed.

In the meantime I found the script below, which works.
Disadvantage is, that in MS Internet Explorer 7, the protection
(beveiliging, in Dutch), has to be set on "Normal". (low).
Is there any script which offers the same function, whithout this problem?

Thank you in advance,
Eef

ALTERNATIVE SCRIPT

<script>
function passWord() {

if (pass1.toLowerCase() == "letmein") {
alert('You Got it Right!');
location.href='p_agenda.htm';
break;

Anyone can do a view source and set the password.

Your PHP script must be run from a web server that supports PHP and all pages to be protected must
have .php extensions. This applies to all server-side script, such as ASP, ASP.net, PHP, CFM, etc.)

Do not use that script - it is useless since viewing source will reveal
the password.

If you must use JavaScript, see
http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests/jspass/ for a couple of better
methods, neither of which are secure.

Better, if you have FrontPage extensions and your host permits subwebs
with unique permissions see:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;301554 (FP2000)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;825451 (FP2003)

If your host supports server side scripting (php, asp, asp.NET, Perl/CGI
etc.) then this is the best way to go. Chris Leeds posted a PHP
solution which has failed for you.

Thank you once again, Ron.

My host does not support FrontPage extensions completely.
That is why I look for alternatives.
