passwords

[stormrevolution]

ok, tryed PHP and dont work well with me, just wondering if there is a secure way to password protect a page.

Im looking for something like a password gate but...for each user there is a different page

like:

user:admin
pass:admin
goes to: www.theadminsite.com (just a sample)

user:admin2
pass:admin2
goes to: www.theadminsite2.com (just a sample)

anyway to do this with ASP??

Cheers in advance!

yes. If you have a data base you can match up the username and password and then select data from the database to create a different page for each user. You can also do it in asp.net jsp cgi cf and any other server side technology. What does your server support first of all? On my site I did logins and a members only area w/ cp features using asp.net, you can view it at www.clanknights.vze.com the account is "sample account" the pass is "1234"

if i am able to do this, how would i go about doing this (very new to ASP, and when i say very new i mean very new!! lol)

it is possible, so either pick the language that you like the most and find a new host for it, or go with asp and buy a book. What programming experience do you have? A simple login is not hard to do, and then accessing data based on the session variables you set when you login the user is not hard to make either, but you should still get a book so you have a better understanding of what is happening and so you can expand apon what you make now in the future.

cheers,

well i do loads of webdesign, and have experience with javascripts and some knowledge of PHP. all im needing is a simple password script that would be secure and take each user to there own personal page. If you or anyone could help me out with a script to do this it would be great.

And im thinking about buying a book, sounds like a good idea and would help in the future!

Cheers for your help so far.
