And I like the extra capabilities.
I use Form builder a lot and this looks like another winner.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

Yes, I'm going to have to buy this program. htaccess can be a pain in going to sites to get the "hashish" passwords

Yeah, I think it's going to be a winner. I have some "private family business" folders on my web host (audio files of my grandmother-in-law talking about her life, mostly), and some work-related files I only want the appropriate customer to be able to get to. I have them on .htaccess control via my host provider, but I like the additional control and convenience I'm going to gain from CC's app. Good stuff!

I'm using the trial version to test it out and it seems to work with GoDaddy. That said, there seems to be a little delay in when it works. I upload and then it doesn't seem to ask me for a password right away even if I blow out the cache. I leave for a while come back and it asks me for a password.
Also, since I'm not up to much on messing with htaccess, is this method as secure, more secure or less secure than creating a log in page the normal way?

Bretly,
I am using this program with 1and1.com and it works great.
Twitch,
What is the normal way to create a login page? There are many different programs that create login pages, but I don't know how they work, so I do not know how secure they are.
From what I have read while researching .htaccess, this is very secure. You can google htaccess and find a lot of information.

Thanks for the reply Bill.
I should also add that the GoDaddy site I successfully tried it on is using a Linux server, not Windows.

There is I think a 30-45 minute wait for their servers to cache the detection of the .htaccess file. Once they do that, any updates are immediate.
htaccess is a very secure way to lock down your system.

Thanks for the reply Scott as always. I like the fact that I can post a question on here and it will get answered. The piece of mind makes it easy to purchase CoffeeCup software.
In fact Website Access Manager is my first purchase on the next pay day.
Thanks,

Nice application. I had it running with a folder protected in less than 10 minutes.
It would be nice to have a MySQL version with a login page. Is that the mod_rewrite option that loses the pop-up login?
