i think on my php password protect. that if i enter a password in to allow user acces of one file user is getting into other direc/files without entering codes. can i tighten this up at all????

also how do i code or at least begin researching phps that will auto encrypt passwords and place user names in htaccess and passcodes in htpsswd and send confirmation notes back to user email.

any bits of code or complete programs appreciated

or links to custom code writers

thank you :cool:

And stays active until you close your browser. If you want to isolate information - use different directories.

Scripts to do all that stuff are on my Tips & Scripts page (link in my sig). Change passwords and send emails with the new passsword, populate htpasswd, and more. You can put them together and customize them to do exactly what you want.
