I am designing a website and need some code here, I want to make a login area, but i don't want everyone in the world to be able to register i want it so only people i want can register. With like a universal username and password. Can someone send me the code for it, please and thank you.

What language?

[pcbres12]

English or if you want the computer language, HTML

[Baez]

HTML is not a language that is capable of that. You would need to use something like JavaScript, C#, PHP, Perl etc.

Well, then do you know how to build something like that? Does anyone

PHP Code:

<?php

if (isset ($_POST['submit'])) {
    $username = $_POST['username'];
    $password = $_POST['password'];

    if ($username == 'user' && $password == 'pass') {
        echo 'logged in';
    } else {
        echo 'Incorrect username/password!';
    }
} else {
    echo '<form action="index.php" method="post">
    Username: <input type="text" name="username" /><br />
    Password: <input type="password" name="password" /><br />
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" />
    </form>';
}

?>

Change 'user' and 'pass' to whatever you want.

Extremely simple version.

So i just copy and paste this into the home page of my webpage?

Yes copy it wherever you would put the username and password textboxes. The browser scans your HTML code and recognizes that you have inserted a PHP script.

Well, the browser will just display it as text. You have to have Apache or IIS installed with PHP configured to parse the PHP and output HTML.

Yeah most importantly your host needs to have PHP installed/supported.
