Code

I used a html form that has a password field named password and a submit button named
submit. When the submit button is clicked the page reloads with the $password variable sent
back to the server. Then when php resends the html to the client it includes the appropriate
javascript to redirect them to the correct protected page.

<?php
if($password){
if($password==coach){
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
location="http://www.charlottesoccer.com/coach.php3";
</script>
<?php
}elseif ($password==admin){
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
location="http://www.charlottesoccer.com/admin.php3";
</script>
<?php
}elseif ($password==member){
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
location="http://www.charlottesoccer.com/member.php3";
</script>
<?php
}elseif ($password==guest){
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
location="http://www.charlottesoccer.com/guest.php3";
</script>
<?php
}else{
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
location="http://www.charlottesoccer.com/signin.php3";
</script>
<?php
}
}
?>

You see that as many passords as you need can be set up.
If there are a large amount of passwords it would be better to set up a select case statement.
