    Authenticate it ... well sort of...

    Simple .htm page that is on our web server. I just want it so that the page does not display unless the end user has entered a specific password. Is this possible?

    I dont want anything like a GUI or anything like that...just something that pops up and asks for a password..if its correct than the end user gets the page displayed otherwise nothing.

    Thanks,
    Jon

    Place a .htaccess file in the directory - provided that you use Apache, but there's something similar for IIS, I'm sure.

    In this .htaccess you put can place authentication information for the containing directory.

    File-wise is not possible wiht plain HTML.
