Trying to add password protected area.

What I’m trying to do is add a password protected area to my clients site without using Front Page extensions. The host’s of there site don’t accept them. I have only had experience adding password protected areas using Front Page Tools.

My clients want to have several different usernames and passwords set up so they can have different clients log into different areas to see how there projects are coming along. They also want it so when a person is typing in the username and password that an astrix will show up instead of the letter (for security purposes).

I was wondering if someone could help me out please.

If it’s important to see the layout of the password area here’s a link to the site.

@MstrBobAug 10.2004 — First of all, this is the wrong forum. This should be under general. That astrix thing you were talking about?

<i>
</i>&lt;form action="" method="post"&gt;
&lt;fieldset&gt;
&lt;label for="uname"&gt;Enter User Name:&lt;/label&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;input type="password" name="uname" size="20"&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;fieldset&gt;
&lt;label for="passwrd"&gt;Enter Password:&lt;/label&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;input type="password" name="passwrd" size="20"&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;fieldset&gt;
&lt;button type="submit"&gt;Sign In&lt;/button&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;


What you are asking for with the login system involves a Server Side Language. You need to find out what server side languages you client's server supports, pick one, and either learn it (take a while), or get an experience scriptor on board. Also make sure you have a database available (MySQL, MSSQL, PostreSQL, Oracle, ect.)

@nicceeauthorAug 10.2004 — Thanks for your help! I´m on the hunt for a programmer as we speak. I certainly don't have the time to learn, not right now.
