	Password protection for webpages... Jan 8^th, 2006 at 9:08pm What is the best way to password protect individual webpage directories? I'm looking for something that pops up a Windows XP type box when you click on a link (the way that Rad's site does.) Thanks in advance.

Reply #1 - Jan 9^th, 2006 at 1:48am this is a feature that comes with my web hosting package, and it works well, simple but effective. i would imagine that most web hosting packages come with some sort of feature that allows you to password protect pages/directories.

I don't know how to do it myself (although it's something I should learn.) Try this link: http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess.shtml
