I am webmaster for a church site but want to post a page which has limited access to members of a committee. I am using Dreamweaver 8 but I can't get my head around the process. Help suggests I use a behaviour - user authenication but that doesn't appear. Any one got a relatively simple method please? I intend that all members have a set password so I don't need to identify different people etc.

Thanks

You can use a javascript from dynamic drive, and here's the link:

If you're a webmaster, you can change the script suit you.

I wouldn't even waste your time using a Javascript-based password script. Typically speaking, JS "security" is an absolute joke and can be broken in a matter of minutes.
The best route is going to be putting your secure pages inside of a common directory and protecting it using .htaccess settings.
I have a tutorial around here somewhere for access restriction with .htaccess, but I can't find it at the moment... I'll try to post it later if no one beats me to it.
