HI I want to have a members only section in one of my websites and I don't know how to go about doing a passworded section. I want to include a discussion forum.

Any help would be grateful.

Thanx

Damon

Hi,

As far as I know any password access issues are developed/integrated on the server side, not your end. You would probably need to contact your hosting company and see what they have to offer.

Hope this helps.

Mark.

Forum software such as phpbb ( www.phpbb.com ) lets you have public forums and private sections as well, so if your hosting deal includes php and mysql then thats an option. You can have forum sections either visible or invisible to non members.

There are various options for password protecting access to certain pages - you can either use .htaccess or there are php scripts available that protect pages.

theres a really good guide found here

This covers sessions in PHP, MySQL database access with php and combining the two to make a member database with a log in session.
