Normally, HTML Password Lock works fine with all kinds of HTML
pages and web browsers, but sometimes, if there are Frontpage
extension based submit form, Javascript based web menu or other
Javascript based elements, the password protection may not work
very well.
In version 4.8, HTML Password Lock adds a new option "Generate
a standalone login file for each locked HTML file" in Step
3, Advanced Options dialog. With this
option, these kinds of webpages can be password protected with
HTML Password Lock perfectly.
How
does this option work?
1. Launch the software, in Step 1, select
your HTML file, in Step 2, define users and
passwords.
2. In Step 3, click Advanced Options
button, in the Advanced Options dialog, choose
the option Generate a standalone login file for each
locked HTML file.
3. Navigate to last step, click button Lock.
4. Now, your HTML file has been locked. Suppose your HTML file
is member.html, the software will
generate three files:
member.html
: This is a standalone login page, you can open this file
to access the login box and test the password protection.
member_lockcontent.html
: This is the HTML file with real content. The visitor will
be redirected to this page after he logged in at the page
member.html, but if a visitor directly
visits this page without logging in, e.g., by directly typing
URL address or bookmarking the URL address, he will be redirected
to the page member.html to login.
You need to upload above two files member.html
and member_lockcontent.html to the
SAME folder on your web server.
member.html.PreLock
the backup copy of your original file. You do not need to
upload this file to your web server, but also, please do not
delete it.
