Hilgerone Posts: 24 Joined: 10/22/2002 Status: offline	password protected pages - 10/22/2002 23:12:43 I want to put a few pages on our site for " members" only. My current hosting plan doesn' t not have ASP and I' d rather not have to upgrade to the next higher plan if I don' t have to. Is there a way to have frontpage create password pages without ASP and hopefully without buying any add on software? Thank you. Matt davidcityfire.com

Second; Since it looks like you are Unix/Linux hosted have a look here... http://www.outfront.net/frontpagesubwebs.htm Rian _____________________________ " Designing The Future" SR Web Creators www.srwebcreators.com " What boots up must come down..."

Offers multiple users and is free. http://javascript.internet.com/passwords/multiple-users-source.html I use this with this No right click DHTML script to keep others from viewing the source code and all of your passwords. http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/noright3.htm Hope this helps!

I went to adjust permissions and I went through what I assume is the server extensions of my web host. I created a new user with browser level permission and set up a user name and password. It then gave me a page of html. I figured that I needed to paste that on to the index page of my subweb and then it would handle the login from there. I did that and when I try to view the page, it says " please wait while your changes are being processed" . Only that never ends. It just keeps flickering. Is the code corrupt or something? Thanks for your help. Matt (in reply to Hilgerone)


Justjay Posts: 697 From: Montreal, QC Canada Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 15:27:59 There is NOTHING that you need to be cutting and pasting when you are using this method! _____________________________ JustJay thejehm.net Web Solutions SAH Link Exchange Serious About Hosting (in reply to Hilgerone)


Hilgerone Posts: 24 Joined: 10/22/2002 Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 17:57:05 Justjay. Okay, I wonder though what the code is that comes up after I set up the user/password/access level and stuff? Is there something then that I need to place on the actual " password" page like a text box form or something that will refer to the subweb? Or should it just work and create it' s own textbox for password entry? Thanks! Matt (in reply to Hilgerone)


Justjay Posts: 697 From: Montreal, QC Canada Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 18:11:23 You will get a pop up like [this] _____________________________ JustJay thejehm.net Web Solutions SAH Link Exchange Serious About Hosting (in reply to Hilgerone)


Hilgerone Posts: 24 Joined: 10/22/2002 Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 18:40:39 That is what I was expecting. But just to run down what I have done so far...I created a subweb, then logged on to it live and picked " permissions" . I then set up a new user that would have browser level access and picked a user name and password, all via my web hosts frontpage extensions. Here is what I now get when I access that page. http://www.davidcityfire.com/memberarea I' m using netscape 7.0. (in reply to Hilgerone)


Justjay Posts: 697 From: Montreal, QC Canada Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 19:08:55 I not sure how to word this - but your code is no longer in Kansas! What is happening is a referring/redirect script...you can get rid of that...just make your index.htm page of your MemberArea subweb a regular index page - with the password protection you will not need to worry about uninvited guests...(well it isnt fool proof but what are the chances of someone wanting to hack your site?) _____________________________ JustJay thejehm.net Web Solutions SAH Link Exchange Serious About Hosting (in reply to Hilgerone)


Hilgerone Posts: 24 Joined: 10/22/2002 Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/23/2002 19:32:22 well, I just set the page as a reqular index page. I put some type on it just so it wouldn' t be a blank screen. I made sure all the settings were still the same through the server extensions and still no password box pops up. Is there anything I actually have to set up through FP itself and not just the server extensions? matt (in reply to Hilgerone)

Been strugling with odds and ends with front page every now and then, I finally have a place to turn. Thanks Jay! Matt (in reply to Hilgerone)

Hilgerone Posts: 24 Joined: 10/22/2002 Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/24/2002 23:13:36 Jay, quick ?. Why do you suppose that you are required to enter the user name and password twice before it allows entry? It pops up, you enter the info, and then it pops up again, then allowing you access. Not a huge deal but I' m not sure why it prompts twice. Any thoughts? Thanks! Matt (in reply to Hilgerone)


Justjay Posts: 697 From: Montreal, QC Canada Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 10/25/2002 7:06:37 Did you take out any " funky code" in the now index page of the memberarea? It isn' t redirected is it? Are you checking the " remember" box? _____________________________ JustJay thejehm.net Web Solutions SAH Link Exchange Serious About Hosting (in reply to Hilgerone)


jwelham Posts: 4 Joined: 12/2/2003 Status: offline	RE: password protected pages - 12/2/2003 7:36:37 Jahni, Thanks for the code to create password protected pages. However, I am having trouble with it. I have followed your instructions and copied and pasted the code into the head and the body of the page. I use the user name of member1 and the password of password1 but every time I preview in the browser i get the follwoing error message: Am i supposed to edit this code in any way to direct the password protected page to another page? The page cannot be displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. _____________________________ (in reply to Justjay)
