keturahuriel Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Ok, this site gave me some code to password protect a page, and I don't know what to do with it though... the instructions the site gave were really confusing..._______________________________________This goes in the top of the actual page I think. </head><script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://www.kkgaara.890m.com/password.js"></SCRIPT><body> Or does this? <!--//// Password Protection//// This code is free to be used as long as these// credits are left intact and included with the script://// Original code created by:// S. Scott Brady, Copyright © 1998// [url="http://www.sbrady.com/"]http://www.sbrady.com/[/url]// webmaster at sbrady dot com//Hide from old browsersvar password = prompt("Enter your password","");if (password == "shukakupwnsgaara") {alert("Password accepted! Loading page...");document.write("<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="layout.css" type="text/css" media="screen" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" /> <title>Members only home</title> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> </head> And this goes below the html or body tags I think. }else {alert("" +password+ " is an Invalid Password! Access denied...");document.write("<p><b>You have entered an invalid password. ");document.write("Access to the document is denied.</b></p>");} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I don't recommend using this for two reasons:1. People can deactivate javascript and see the page anyways.2. People can read the source code and see the password.If you want a password protected page I recommend a server-side language like PHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhecht Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 or you could just use .htaccess to manually seal the page... its entirely up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keturahuriel Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 How do you use .htaccess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhecht Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 you can either go to the apache website or google it. I personally never use .htaccess for password protecting anything. It's better to use a server-side language like PHP or even ASP if you must.(if your server doesn't have PHP, then move to a different one because PHP is free, so there's really no reason to NOT have it. Xtreemhost is a good, free PHP host). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
