password protected webpages

[swissruthy]

Hello,
can anyone tell me if I can make some of my pages on my website password
protected. I have a general public website, but I would like to add pages for
the trade, accessible only by password. I read the instructions from
microsoft "how to create a password-protected web page", but I am still not
clear if I can combine or need to make a whole new website.
I am using FP 2003. Thanks

You need to create a subsite under you current web.

Your host will have to support subwebs and unique permissions under the FP Server Extensions

Hello,
I tried to use the procedures in "How to create a
password-protected Web page" without creating a subsite.
I thought I could modified the code in the sample pages
so they would work as pages in my main Web. I can
display the pages ok by manually typing in the file names
but I can't get them to link to each other. The linking
URLs have the mysterious ?scid= code.

Here are a couple of my test pages:
http://www.clivesoden.com/logon.asp and
http://www.clivesoden.com/homepw.asp

Does anyone know if you can make a password-protected
page without creating a subsite in your Web?

Thanks,
Clive Soden

As long as all of your page have the .asp extension, you don't have to have a subweb / subsite.

Where ever you got or read ["How to create a password-protected Web page" without creating a
subsite.], you need to either post a URL to this document or contact the author of the document for
help.

It is not possible for anyone to help you without seeing the actual code, since ASP code can not be
view via View Source in the browser.

Hi
I use this method
http://www.frontpagehowto.com/newpassword/default.asp#logon
you will need to make a few simple tweeks (connections and field names) but
it works realy well
best wishes

Delete the ?scid=

Example:

Rewrite <a href="/?scid=index.html">Back to Home</a>
as <a href="index.html">Back to Home</a>
