How is is that you would make a login and password for a web site. I know that there are some free password required re-directs (completely unsecure) that you can GET, but I would LIKE to know how you would make one yourself.What webserver/scripting language/database are you using?I don't have a web server.
I have the program Dreamweaver.
I do not have a database.
I take it that I need those, right?Indeed. You will need a web server (Do a web search for Apache, they have Windows and Linux versions) to test your pages. You will also need PHP. Google that as well. Dreamweaver creates HTML files but it is incapable of doing PHP and MySQL as far as I know - you'll need to do it yourself. If you get all three of these things properly set up, let me know how you did it. (Kidding, I think I got it set up)

We'll be here to assist you in setting up. OH, and if you're running Windows XP, then keep this tidbit in mind; it makes no sense now but it will LATER: THE MYSQL SERVICE MUST BE ENABLED. The lack of knowledge of this tidbit CAUSED robpomeroy and myself endless grief.Hey Dilbert, do you know of a HTML command(s) that will let you put a login script on your website?This is not something you can do just with HTML.  You need something (a configuration file or a program) at the server end to process logons.  E.g. Apache's .htaccess files, or a PHP script looking up user ids in a database.

You can simulate logins using javascript and cookies, but the result would be HIGHLY insecure.take a look here to see a simple solution until you learn how to do it yourself
