Safari Users

[Thomas Robb]

We have Windows IIS hosting on our web server. Can you
give me some direction as to how to start this using
access? Do I create an access database with user names
and passwords in separate fields? I am a novice at
Access and have built a couple of simple 3-4 table
relational databases. After creating the database, do I
use front page to have the server access this and how do
I show the user name/password screen on the website and
direct it to the subweb that is currently protected?

Also, will I disable the protections and turn anonymous
access back on? Some direction would be helpful even if
it is referring me to some article you have available.

Thanks,

Tom


FP can be used to create any type of web site or coding.

In the case of server-side scripting, you have to first
determine what scripting language and
database is supported on the server that is hosting the
site, then you either have to search for a
pre-written application or learn to code your needs in
the supported scripting language.

If you are hosted on Windows IIS, then you can use ASP
and Access, and there are pre-written
application available.

Does Front Page have the ability to make custom written
server-side login applications?

Thanks and sorry if this question sounds dumb.

On the server you need to enable basic authentication or
you need to switch to a custom written
server-side login application. This is not a FP related
issue.

Basically yes, you would create a Access database with a single table. The table would at a minimum
have 3 fields:

RecID = Autonumber field
UserID = Text field
UserPWD = Text field

The you would create a form where user enter their UserID and UserPWD, this would be submitted to a
page that query the database for an exact match of both field in a single record, then based on both
value returning true, you would set a session value, then indicates that the user has logged in,
then you would redirect the user to a Welcome page, etc.
