If you are using Google Page Creator to create and manage your web pages, please read this tutorial.

Step 1:

Use Google Page Creator to create your webpage, including the file(s) needing protection.

Step 2:

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

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

Step 3:

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

Launch HTML Password Lock.

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

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

In the Last Step, click on the "Lock" button. The locked file(s) will be listed on the file list.

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

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

Step 4:

Now that the HTML file(s) have been locked, you can upload them to your web server via the "Upload" in the control panel of Google Page Creator.

After a HTML file is protected, you cannot edit the protected content with Google Page Creator anymore, so the best solution is to save the locked HTML file with a different filename, thus avoiding to overwrite the existing HTML file on your web server.
