Yes there is BOD.
It's not terribly secure but there's one out now that's
pretty good. I'll try to find it again and get back to you.
I hope I still have the link somewhere handy.

Can't you do that right in Apache? I think there you protect by dir.

EDIT: I mean Abyss.

Thump

Yes, I found the link BOD.
Now it's Javascript which is seldom used by anyone who
seriously needs to hide a page but this one uses
Encription. Here's the link:

You can stick it in a directory and use AWS to protect that.

In Apache you can use scripts to enable passworded pages. even works for whole directories.

Theres also some javascripts on www.hotscripts.com that has the same setup.

Apaches pass protections so hard to figure out :P

Yeah, but in apache its living hell.

SurfinShell23

TCP probably could. He helped me set up Apache back when I had it.
