password directory

[sjacko]

any other scripts that allow me to password an admin directory on my site??

i am using .htaccess but was wondering if there was anyway i can intergrate a simple users login script into mine.

anyone know of any?

i suppose you could create a login page, and make sure the user is logged in (check $_SESSION) for every page within the folder. It sure would be alot easier to just stick to .htaccess or use this method instead:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/auth.html

I use the above link's method for my site and it works perfectly. No .htaccess files. I just add a block of code for each folder i want protected and tell it which users i want to access it. The code goes in the httpd.conf file. You also have a to make a passwords file using htpasswd
