A simple login script that you can modify to suite your needs. It use a session to store data in a session file submited by the page. In this example the username and password will be save in the session file created by php.
I introduce the following files.
index.php -script file as name of your protected site.
login.html -script file as your login page.
user -folder
test.txt -account file under folder(user)
test|password -the content of the test.txt, username is test password is password
What you are going to do?
1. In your php.ini, enable session.use_cookies and specify session.save_path
2. Create a folder name "user" under it create an account file example: "test.txt"
3. The content of your test.txt will be like this
test|password
*note
account filename is the same as username.
5.copy the script and place it to your web directory.
4.edit the index.php and change the $root=to the actual full path where folder(user) is located.
5.and insert the code of your protected website as shown in the script.
<!//your script starts here when account is valid--->
<! insert your code here.....---->
Password Protected Website<br>
YOU ARE LOGIN AS <? echo $username ?> <br>
