You should take a look at SiteLok from Vibralogix. It’s great for restricting certain areas of one’s website as well as displaying user specific content.

There is also the server side way using the Password Protected Directories feature that many of the Web Hosting control panels offer.
You can set up any Folder to be protected by any number of user/password combinations. So if you have a link to any page within a protected folder then the visitor will need to enter a valid user/password for being allowed entry.
It really depends what sort of functionality you are after. This what it looks like in most CPanels http://www.deltadzine.net/cpanel.html

True, but that would also depend on the limit that each hosting provider allows. That could be 50 users or could be more or less. Only the OP would know.

so each time they request a user name and password - we have to log it in, in the cpanel?
I actually have the same question

Well Dave’s way yes, but with SiteLok you can offer self-registration and you can set up default groups and what not. It’s very flexible and easy to use. You can then have user specific pages rather than tying them to individual directories.
Plus if you sell downloadable products using Mals, at least my screencasts are, then you can tie into Sitelok and set people up with a username and password automatically after purchase to log into your site and either download their product or see a list of products they purchased.
I doubt Dave’s method could do that.

Thats exactly why I said ‘It really depends what sort of functionality you are after’
If Jake can expand on what exactly he wants to achieve then we can be more specific.

Generally this is best suited to site owner assigned user/pass combos. eg if you wanted to give a client access to a folder to see work in progress or a general user/pass combo could be supplied to customers to enable them to see trade prices.
Just a couple of instances.

My question about this was for 2 things (sorry for interrupting)
- baby registry
- wholesale products - that you have to register to use. / see the special prices

- baby registry
You will need to expand on that one.
As to the second - as previously explained assign a username/password to a folder and let your wholesale enquirers have a user/pass for access.

It is when a bride or an expectant mother registers on a site for specific products that they want.
you see this on most major sites- and they are able to order - but we do not want something that fancy.
just for them to create a list of what they want - for others to go in then and see.

Well, you’re going to need something like a guestbook (if you don’t mind other people seeing what the previous people have already “taken”), or you will need some way for each person to register their individual products without showing the other people what they’ve taken.
I don’t know of any guestbooks off hand, but you could do the other format very easily with the PHP Feedback Form Action. Just show everyone the same page, with the list of products and the feedback form dressed up to look like the “Register” form. They enter their name, e-mail, and the choice (in the message field) and away you go. No need for security around this.
You might also have a look on HotScripts.com for something that’s specifically for a wedding registry.
