How to get a Login/Password thingy for my site? 1

[jerryx]

Just wondering what is the easiest way to do a Login/Password thing like Hotmail or a link to a protected site..using Frontpage?? What I would like to do is to make a link or a page like Hotmail and I would like people to register and get their login name and password after the register and click on the link and login in? Could anybody help me on this? Thanks!<br>

You will have to use some sort of database to accomplish this. What you do is store the name/password pairs in the database, then, after the user enters the name/password, you simply see if the Passoword matches for the name. You can do this in frontpage, using an Access Database, very easily.

OK Madhacker <br>
So give us just a little detail we are very intrigued<br>
Do we set up a database region?<br>
do we need to have .ASP extensions.<br>
TIA

A little more detail? Go to the frontpage help file and type in &quot;Add information from a database to your pages using the Database Results Wizard&quot;. That should cover all the details.

I have a customer that wants users to pay for site membership with a credit card. How can I do this?

I would suggest an actual merchant account for credit card processing, where you don't have to register as a customer.

Try Linkpoint.com or Cardersive.com for merchant accounts. I have set up both API and HTML very easy.

As for the login 'thingy' here is another opinion that is fairly easy and pretty secure.
