[Year 12 IT Apps] Password script...

[jturner]

We have used the following JS script where the password is the  
intended page name (and therefore doesn't show up in the script)
from www.webreference.com (1997) - Mecklermedia Corp

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "Javascript">
<!--

function valid(path) {
	var password = prompt("Enter the password:", " ");
	if (password) location.href = path + password + ".html";
}

//-->
</SCRIPT>
Click <A HREF = "javascript: valid('/js/')"here</A> to enter the  
password


..... js is the folder in which the linked page is to be found  
relative to the source page.
You can always leave it as // if both pages are the the same folder
... page of course must be fit the suffix (ie .html in this case)
