I only have part of the site restricted
I kind of wanted to make it look nice so that
if management was off site and hit the page they could see that the
downloads would not work
.... or anyone else.
then if they click on the link it can give them the error code. The green
light ... all is good the links work.
I guess I will look into perl for this
thanks.

I will do the lock down in apache.
Is there any examples on how this could be done ( sample code)
( I will work on the stop light image ) I just need the html logic.

Seriously, HTML doesn't _do_ stuff, there aren't conditionals. It just
describes data.

any examples or places to look would be great.
This is more of a CGI question than an HMTL one. The answer will
depend on what server-side programming language you're using, but it
involves reading the REMOTE_ADDR value sent with the request in the
HTTP headers.
He said he's using Apache to turn people away; there's no need for a
script to be checking the IP address. Just use Apache's error handler.
<URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#errordocument>
Basically, just plonk down a file at /errors/401.html and put the
following in .htaccess:
ErrorDocument 401 /errors/401.html
Obviously, you have to allow everyone to access the error document.
