Though I should warn you that any password protection done in javascript can be cracked. You may want to look into a php/MySQL solution instead.

Yep, ditto Chris S above: because the javascript or html stuff runs on the *user* (page viewer or "client") computer, it's too easy for the typist to see and crack. Your best bet to make a secure password is to fetch somewhere a simple PHP or ASP script to fetch the password from the form and compare it to something stored in the script on the "server" computer!

In order to verify whether any given user is authorized or not, whatever script you use must be able to compare user entries (e. g. name and password) with pre-existing data. That usually means storing authorized user information in a database.

You need to know what is and is not supported by your site's host, then learn how to work within those constraints.

For example, most of my experience has been with ASP and MS Access.
In addition to years of experience with Access, my skillset also includes SQL, ASP, VBScript, Javascript, CSS, HTML, and some image processing. (I am also trying to learn a few other helpful things on a catch-as-catch-can basis)
