Making User Names and Passwords

[Eag|e]

Hey, I'm new to JavaScript, just picked up a book on it yesterday so I could start learning, figured it might be useful since I already know HTML...But I wanted to do a members only section for www.unitedassault.vze.com (http://www.unitedassault.vze.com) but I don't know how...if anyone could help me with this that would be great! Thanks!

Well, I'll start by saying that javascript is not the language to do this in. You need some sort of server side language such as PHP or Perl/CGI. The reason for this is that javascript _cannot_ make secure logins. It is quite easy for anyone to find the usernames/passwords in javascript.

Would you happen to know any good sites that teach Perl or PHP

For PHP, look to the source. http://www.php.net

For Perl, I'd have to assumbe that http://www.perl.com/ would be a good bet, but couldn't really tell you. I almost always use PHP.

You might also want to think about picking up a book on which ever language you decide to learn.
