   Best Webmaster Software Tools for Website Building!

If you are using Yahoo Geocities Free plan, or using Yahoo PageBuilder and PageWizards to create your web pages, please follow this tutorial.

Otherwise, if you are using Yahoo Geocities Plus/Pro plan, and using Yahoo Site Builder or Frontpage, Dreamweaver to create web page, please follow the tutorial for Yahoo Site Builder, Frontpage and Dreamweaver.

Step 1:

Use Yahoo PageBuilder or Yahoo PageWizards to create your webpage.

Step 2:

View the webpage with Internet Explorer, then click Internet Explorer menu "View->Source", the source code of the web page will be opened in Notepad.

Click Notepad menu "File -> Save As", save it a HTML file with extension as ".html".

Step 3:

Now you can use HTML Password Lock to password protect this HTML file.

Launch HTML Password Lock.

In Step 1, click the "Add file" button, browse to the folder where the HTML file has been saved locally on your computer, select the HTML file, add the file to the file list.

In Step 2, define username and password. If this is the first time you use the software, you can click "Next" to skip Step 3 and Step 4, keep the default options.

In Last Step, click "Lock" button. The locked file will be listed in the file list.

Select the file in the file list, double-click it or click the "Test" button, open it with web browser and test the password protection. If you open the file with Internet Explorer, click the yellow alert bar on top of the web page, select "Allow Blocked Content", in the popup window, click "Yes".

For a detailed description of this step, please refer to Quick Start.

Step 4:

Now, the HTML file has been locked, you can upload the web pages to your web server via the "File Manager" in Geocities control panel.

After a HTML file is protected, you can not edit the protected content with Yahoo PageBuilder or PageWizards anymore, so you'd better change the locked HTML file to a different filename, so to avoid overwriting the existing HTML file on your web server.

Select "Manage" panel, then click "Easy Upload":

Click "Browse..." button to select the locked HTML file, then click "Upload files" to upload the locked file to your web server.
