Yankman30 Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 Hi, to create a Password Protected area in Dreamweaver, you need Windows XP Professional because it supports PWS to use ASP. It seems you need ASP to create a database that stores the passwords and user names. I have XP Home and I'm afraid to upgrade because of all the potental problems, not to mention the cost. Is there any other way to Password Protect certain pages of a site? I'm using Dreamweaver to create the website. I really only need a few passwords and I don't need to get any information from the user. I would like something very basic and simple. Thanks for any help! Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 You can password protect folders in your public_html directory using cpanel. Not sure if you can get to the page level. Quote
Yankman30 Posted July 20, 2005 Author Posted July 20, 2005 That was easy enough, thanks! I was actually looking in the CPanel and missed it, several times actually! Is this very secure or can visitors get tge password easily? Thanks for your time! Quote
TweezerMan Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 It is not what I would call "very secure", but many users consider it "secure enough" for their purposes. Quote
