Password Protecting

[dudeking]

Just started my new site yesterday.
www.hexzero.co.uk

I brought the domain and hosting from stream line, I use them for my other sites and they are really good.
Now I will be having a password protected area of the site streamline want me to pay £15 a year for this feature.
Is there any way I can do this for free I know how to do little scripts with javascript that a two year old could hack but I need somthing strong.

Any Ideas?

No. Not with Windows. You can password protect scripts, databases individually, but you cannot password protect a folder without the add-on.

If you want a user area then you need to install a membership system.

Looks like ill have to pay up then.Its not hosted on windows it uses linux.Well are there any scripts more secure than ones where the password can be seen in the HTML.

If they use Apache then see if you can add your own .htaccess files.
If so then you can use .htaccess password protection.

Ill email them and ask now.
Thanks degsy.
