Password Protect a Website

Hey guys i was wondering if there is anyway you can password protect a certain part of a website to keep people from un-intentionally changing settings? Thanks in advance!

Yes.....if you are hosting yourself and have Apache you can use .htaccess files and if you are using IIS...you can just load the IIS manager and select the folder that you wish to protect and right click to select properties. Then go to the Directory Security tab, click the first edit button, uncheck anonymous access, check basic authentication, and for the domain and realm type your domain name without the www. Now, if you have your site hosted somewhere else you will have to contact them about it or you can use a javascript login which isn't as secure.....javascripts can be found at http://javascript.internet.com.

Here is a simple script you can use for places like Geocities. It will not keep out determined hackers, just the curious.
You have to link to this page (jex10.html) from your index page, then this password request page will popup.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<!--file: jex10.html-->
<head>
<title>Password</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--hide
var password=prompt('Enter the password:','');
var mypassword="type password here";
if (password==mypassword)
{
window.location="menu.html";
}
else
{
window.location="jpass2.html";
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>&nbsp;</body>
</html>

if you are the administrator of the server there is a free tool called IISpassword from a company called Troxo, the tool helped me solve the same problem that you seem to have. You will find the tool at http//:www.troxo.com
