How do I make a simple Password field... More.

[Wayne Davis]

I want to password protect the continued running of a section of javascript.

What I need is for the user to see a login field, they type a code in, if it
is good, the script continues, if bad, it stops dead.
I would like to base the password on julian date so some example numerical
calcs (so I can see how they are structured in Java) would be handy.

Also, how do I time out a group of statements after a preset amount of time
like 1 minute or so.

I am not a Java programmer, but if examples are shown, I can usually figure
out the specific details.

THANKS in advance.

Problem with JS passsword rotection is that someone may be able to read and
work out the password as they can grab your code even if it's calculated. I
would suggest having the password verified serverside myself.

I will be using a webpage encrypter on the html. That should protect it
sufficiently no?

No. Any encryption where the client can decrypt the contents unaided
(as it must to use the page) can also be made to show the decrypted

I bet I can break the encrypter in at most 15 minutes, if I want to
(and probably a lot faster).

Below is a sample webpage that says: "Hello There" in the middle of the
screen. This looks like it would thwart most attempts to "break" it. No?

It is to put your reply at the top and include the entire post you
reply to below. The preferred way of responding is the "interleaved"
method where you include selected parts of the previous message, enough
to give a context to your reply, and then reply to each part.

I had to use some time collecting the wrapped lines (i.e., your posted
version won't work if copied verbatim).

The page doesn't validate. You are not allowed to have script elements
before the <head> tag.

The function that attempts to clobber the status line, as well as the
attempt to stop the context menu, will fail in my browser anyway.

Encrypting web pages cannot work, it's simply theoretically impossible
to make a page that the browser can decrypt, but its user cannot.

Well, You have all proven the point. And of course you are 100% correct.
Hmm.... So now, to do what I want would require some code on the server?
Is this a simple thing to do yet/still?

Putting responses before quoted material, generally untrimmed. Read the
FAQ. Eschew the practice, as experienced posters to.

And when I say it is encrypted, I mean the WHOLE PAGE is an encrypted

It is unfair to post a page that is not valid script; you have allowed
the newsreader to break lines. After correcting that, one can see the
code by doing alert(unescape(pe)) which, on looking at your
article, is a fairly obvious approach.

Executing S = <that string> ; F.Code.value = unescape(S)
in my js-quick.htm loads the textarea with the script.

W3's TIDY does not much like the decoded code, though.
