Code Briefing:
- Now let me tell you how it works. Firstly, when the user want to visit the PROTECTED AREA of your site, he/she have to register his/her name before login - registration.asp
- After completing the Registration process, new user can login - login.asp
- User enters the Username and Password - if the Username and Password is correct, then the protected page will be open - protected.asp
- If the Username or Password are incorrect - an error message will be displayed and user will be redirected to login page again.
- To logout the protected area of the file simply click - logout.asp
- After logout, if the the user/member has to login again then he/she have to login again.
Simple!
About Authentication File (logincheck.asp):
Please note that this file is very important if you have links in PROTECTED
AREA of your website and you want them not to be open without
login, then this code is for you.
Example:
Login Page --> After entering correct Username & Password opens --> Protected Page
Protected Page
|
Link1 - Link2 - Link3 - Link4 - Link5
Suppose the user visits the PROTECTED AREA of the website on Day1
and found that there are some Links which are written in
protected page (i.e. protected.asp, in this case) and the user
visits one of the given link. If the user notes the URL of
that particular page then the user can easily visit that page
without login. To prevent this, Authentication File is used.
Therefore user has to login each time user visit the site.
There are two methods to perform:
-
By including Authentication File on the top of every page linked to PROTECTED AREA before <html> tag.
<!--#include file="logincheck.asp"-->
-
By writing the content of the logincheck.asp on the top of every page PROTECTED AREA before <html> tag.
Get the Code
Please copy all files to a web server running IIS 5.0 or IIS 6.0 and try the code out for yourself.
Important:
If you want to test the code on a free server, then you must upload the files
on a free server which supports ASP and MS-Access.
If you still face any problem then please mail me on above E-Mail address.
Happy Programming!
