How to create a login page (beginner)??

Hi,

I am hoping someone might be able to give me some advice and/or point me in the right direction of a good tutorial etc!

I am working to create a website where the index.html page is a 'login page'. The only way the user can view the website is by logging in at this index.html page.

I have created websites before - but never with login pages. Can anyone help me?

I use dreamweaver (I try to code manually where I can). My hosting package includes 5 my sql databases.

Hope this is enough information, as mentioned above this is brand new to me so am looking to the experts on here for advice and guidance!

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Hai, if you are talking about ASP, I have a complete tutorial lined up for you here. Just check out the link below!

ASP-MySQL: Advance Login Page [Step-By-Step Tutorial - Example In Action]

To create a Login Page,First you should create a table calledusers. This is the table that we will check the form fields against. Use the followig code to create this table.php
CREATE TABLE users (
username varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
password varchar(20) NOT NULL default ''
); After you have created your table populate it at least with one entry, for the sake of example we will use admin for username and admin for password. You are free to populate with your own data.
Now Open your dreamweaver and create a new page called login.php .
After you have created your login page make a connection to your database.

Are people going to be registering their own accounts at this site, or is just one username and password for everyone?
