Eric:

I will post my progress, but, first, I am going to make a fresh pot of coffee and then re-start your instructions.

I was truly doing great; the instructions seem to be a good fit for me. Idiot proof instructions, just the kind of instructions that I need to obtain progress in my web design educational/ training experiences. That is, I implementing the instruction as so stated right up to step 7. Then after posting the password.htlm to the Root, you then stated that I would now need to add the .swf file to the Root, a file that I could not locate, thus, the coffee break. I had created my first password.html in Notepad (I think the format was saved in either ANSI or txt file format). I will now try creating this password.html file to be added to the Root in the HTML Editor and then look for the password.swf file.

Because this may take a while, please allow me to say thank you for taking the time to create, among others, the training and educational reference page. You, the Coffeecup personnel and the Coffeecup Community are outstanding-awesome—it is great for me to see, learn and enjoy how others are so unselfishly sharing their time, insight and professionalism in this WOW phenomenon.

Thanks Reality:
I may tweak the instructions if I find users having trouble implementing them. I have used a few shortcuts in making them just to keep the length down:).
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Hi Reality GDK
I'm not that good in english, so I will second your fine statement about the people in this Community and in my case Eric.
And just to asure you that your are most welcome to add a comment, question, suggestion and every thing else. I'm learning a lot being reading about the challenge that the members of the community is facing, especially when it is on this thread.

The *.swf file and the *.html file is located in C:\Program Files\CoffeeCup Software\CoffeeCup Password Wizard\Projects\*.swf

Kind regards Peter

I made step 3 with this URL http://rothelund.dk/protect.html because what we are doing here is to be loaded to my site for testing

Step 4 i made with this code from CCPW

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
ID=prl WIDTH=151 HEIGHT=130>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="prl.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<EMBED src="prl.swf" loop=false quality=high
WIDTH=151 HEIGHT=130 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>

Step 5
This page is named login.html and the box is made 750x600 as the page itself.
The code I pasted is:

<iframe src="login2.html" width="750" height="600" scrolling="no" frameborder="0">
<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>

When i previewed this page it showed me login2.html

If the above is correct I'll be glad.

Step 6
I pasted this code to the head af the page (protect.html)

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (parent.frames.length==0)
window.location.replace("login.html")
//-->
</script>

When i previewed the page I saw the picture I put in, but when I allowed scripts and axtive X in the browser it returned me to the login box on login2.html.

If that is correct I'll be even more :)

Peter:

Your welcoming, comments and code instructions just made a moment in my life, especially the welcoming me…Thank you for being so generous to show me that kindness translate well in any language.

Eric:

[The zip files are here: http://www.realitygdk.com/?post=eric-pa … -1-18-2012 ]
{Thanks to Scott (Scott walked me throught a forrest so that I could place these files here)]


This is most likely due to my inability to follow instruction
Using the instructions at http://progrower.coffeecup.com/login.html

The information above Step 1, I took as being the finish results

Step 1
This might be where I made my first mistake; I am currently working on a site via VSD so I took these instructions to mean that I could just add 3 pages to my current web pages.

Between step 1 and 2

The instruction states that “This page will only have the html box on it and nothing else.

I then created the 3 VSD pages, protect. Html, login2.html and login.html.

Paint graph=
VSD7_Build24_Protect_Login2_Login,
ProtectViaCCMenu_HTML
ScreenAfterenterCodeforProtect
Login2ViaCCMenu_HTML
ScreenAfterenterCodeforLogin2
LoginViaCCMenu_HTML
ScreenAfterenterCodeforLogin

Step 2

I have the CC HTML Editor 12.5 Build 400. I have not used this Program, mistake two.

I click under the File menu New HTML page.
I enter your Code over the code on the Untitled HTM, not knowing where to save the new html; I then save the CC HTML as protect.html in the directory that opened up. Mistake three?

Paint graph=
OpenCCHTML12.5Build400
OpenCCHTML12.5Build400ClickNewHTMLPage
OpenCCHTML12.5Build400EnterFirstCodeOnUntitled1
OpenCCHTML12.3Build400SaveNewHTMLasProtect
OpenCCHTML12.5Build400protect.htmlsaveUntitledChangedToProtect

Step 3

I then opened CC Password Wizard Version 6 Build 8, another program that I had not used.

First problem “set href for the page you want to protect…I guessing this Protect.html, but where is the href?

I guess that meant the Users URL given your example of http://progrower.coffeecup.com/protect.html
The problem here for me is this CC s-drive account at http://realitygdk.coffeecup.com or my newly acquired domain name http://www.realitygdk.com .

Still hoping that I am following your example, where you have used coffeecup.com
as an address and given that I too want to protect, the protect.html page, I used
my CC reference which is reality.coffeecup.com/protect.html.

Paint graph=
OpenPawwordVersion6Build8
CCPassworWizardwithUserURLatCC

Step 4
… “Now goto the page that will have the login box and add a HTML box and paste the code generated by the Password Wizard into the Body HTML. …

[When I attempted this I had 2 files, one named login and the other untitled…I clicked login, as I did not see potect.html.]

In step 4 I read your instruction to mean that I was to go to the open VSD and click on the Login2. Being new this entire coding process with I had no idea what other page had a workaround on and this is not the page so stated which would have a box, as mentioned in the Between Step 1 and 2, that indicated only the Login page would have a html box.

Only later after several re-reading the steps in 3, 4 and 5 did I understand that in Step 3 after saving the file I needed to upload or publish the file to generate the code

Paint graph=
UploadSaveFlashFilePasswordLoginOrUntitled
UploadSaveFlashFilePasswordClickedLogin

Step 5

Now goto the page that will hold the workaround. For me it is login.html. Place a HTML box on that page and make it the same size as the page itself and center over the page. For me that is 1000 x 1000. Now paste the code below to the Body HTML

I am guessing the confusion in and between steps 3 to 5 are add up as:
What login box?
How to add a HTML box?
Past what code?
What code is generated by the Password Wizard?
What page is holding the workaround?
Given that I following instruction while at the same time I am hoping that I not going to be pointing my 3 VSD Pages to your site I just went to the pages you indicated: login2.html, and login.html, and then ran to the next Step.

Paint graph=
UploadSaveFlashFilePasswordIClickingloginIreceivedAnderror
UploadSaveFlashFilePasswordIAfterErrorIchangedURLtomyrealitygdk.comdomain

Step 6

In step 6 the head of the page to me meant, open the VSD page protect.html (which in my case I already had the Coffeecup HTML open, but saw no files, so I then open the HTML on the VSD Tool Bar, another mistake…?) via the HTML in the menu bar and click the generated box.

The problem with steps 3 to 6 for me which may be instinctual to an experienced user is that I still had the VSD, HTML, Password programs open and if you do not know how to create a HTML box—which programs does.

Paint graph=
UploadSaveFlashFilePasswordUploadViaDomainbutNOcode

Step 7
After ctrl-alt-f, I see protect.html and login.swf in the Root. I am feeling great.
I save the VSD, I then publish to www.reality.com
I receive my rough proposal web page box no boxes.

So I am thinking that I need to link protect, login2 and login.html pages together and then link one of the pages to my web home page. But I cannot link them, the link screen is grayed out.

I still have three CC programs open, maybe this is the problem, that is the files are not properly saved or closed, but I have no instruction to close them, so it is time to go to the Coffeecup site.
Eric, I think it not your instruction as it is the novice user making guesses as to what

... Thanks Eric for your patience, time and expertise...

It should have returned you to the login.html page. But if you don't have the last steps complete it may not. The one thing to actually look for is the address in the address bar when you preview. Because of the use of frames your going to see login2.html on the page but the address bar will read login.html. I would go ahead with the rest of the steps if you haven't already.

Reality GDK, I'll look at the zips tomorrow morning as I had a super busy day at the greenhouse today. Were rebuilding 29k sqft of greenhouse and I spent most of the day on an excavator digging trenches for some new water mains.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Gee, here I am unable to muster up any degree of clarity or ability to fluidly describe seven computer program procedural steps. These are procedural steps which Eric has already placed in a road map. I am now realizing the annoying grammar, misplaced logic and spelling errors, as shown above. I am also becoming lost in my own documentation. I then read: “Were rebuilding 29k sqft of greenhouse and I spent most of the day on an excavator digging trenches for some new water mains.”

Off topic, … please Erik do not take this the wrong way as it is merely my attempt to offer a left handed compliment….but after reading about your ‘super busy day’ I could not think beyond “[t]he treatment in pain management is guided by the history of the pain, its intensity, duration, aggravating and relieving conditions, and structures involved in causing the pain. In order for a structure to cause pain, it must have a nerve supply, be susceptible to injury, and stimulation of the structure should cause pain.” That is, if I had a day like yours, I could not then collect my thoughts to productively address any questions that I did not think involved easing my immediate pain.

I thank you, Peter and Scott for allowing me to be a lurker, and then accepting my attempts to contribute. As I see and hear it; you and Peter are bilingual, and now the two of you are speaking the same language along with the fact that this thread/issue belongs to you and Peter; addressing his concerns resolves my immediate issue. I will take this opportunity to become acquainted with the CC tools involved in this issue and check your Site for the progress on the rebuilding project in hopes it goes as planned.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
