Re: Newbie Password check problem

hi ronald, you can do something easy as this: <? if($send == '') { ?> your html form <? }elseif($send == 1) { ?> you html result.. <? } ?> this is very easy, just put a hidden field that calls send with the value 1, the script verify the content of the send variable, if the value is 0 then print the form that ask the user and passowrd, else if the value is 1 it will print the page that you want to access...just remember to send the form to the same file... bye...
