    Login script for php

    I'm a VERY basic webmeister for a non-profit group and need to password
    protect an area. How does that work? Is there some boilerplate script
    I can drop in?

      Re: Login script for php

      If you want to do it tourself you are better off using a database to store
      the username and password. Then use a simple php script that reads that info
      and compares it with what is read from the form. Try using the encryption
      features of php.

      The devshed page at
      http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/Creat...-Login-Script/
      has a pretty good example of how to do this.

          Those scripts are all well and good, but don't forget the periphery
          that's also assumed to be available:
          Script for "root admin" to add, maintain and delete
          User signup
          Forgot my password
          Forgot my userid

          not to forget about hackers attempting to break in and do some SQL
          injection.

          Suggest looking at some PHP classes that have this all built in.

              I just did that. Like you I am very basic.

              Everything I needed was available thru my server which was EV1.
