Web page

[Guest]

I am building a web page for my church and have to add a database where
members can find information. The problem that I have is that I need to add
passwords for each and every member so they can get teir own information
without being able to see someone else's info. What do I have to do?

Please help

That would depend on (1) what database you are using, (2) what you have used
to create the website, and (3) how you are using (2) to access (1).

A website running on Apache, under Linux, using PHP to access a MySQL
database will be different than a website using IIS, under Windows, using
..asp or ASP.NET, to access a Jet or MSDE or Microsoft SQL Server database.

If you'll clarify, perhaps someone can direct you to an appropriate
newsgroup. This one is only possibly a good source of answers for website
database issues.

I guess you got me there, you see all that you wrote makes no sense to me
because I am not a professional web pager builder. But I am using access and
am building it with ms access. I would like to have them enter their member
id. and password and be re-directed to their own information

First question

Are you using a webpage design tool such as dreamweaver or front page or do
you plan to hand code.

*Translation*

If you want to get the information from your database you'll need some
way of interacting with it. ASP and ASP.NET are programming languages
designed to help you display and interact with data on webpages (which
is what you want). I am pretty sure you'd be able to find some code
online that you could make use of.

If you are using something like Microsoft Frontpage - see if there is
someone who could help you with your question in:
microsoft.public.frontpage

If you're not using frontpage then post a message back with what
program you are using and I am sure, someone will be able to point you
in the right direction.
