I'm Looking For Help With Programming (i Think)

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for someone who can help me figure out how to make a site the way I want it. I have made several websites, but what I'm looking to do now is make one where I can have members. Something where people can sign up and log in. I'm pretty sure there's some kind of special coding needed for this, but not sure what. I'm thinking it has something to do with php(no clue what that is), but I'm not sure. Any help and input would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Well php would be the way to go in order to create a member login script, as there are several posted here or if you want to create yourself check out http://www.pixel2life.com/ has they have several tutorials on how to build. But I warn you though you need to know a lot about php security so as to prevent script kiddes from hacking into your site. Of course if your setting up something like a word press blog then you won't need much from there.

Here are some links of interesting here on trap about member logins and setting them up:

Well you do have many options. Any server side script could do this for you but I'd choose PHP, (but then again I'm biased because it is my favorite coding language :P).
W3Schools is great for starting out any language, so I suggest you go to them and take their intro php course..

there are ways to go about including membes, and logins and stuff like that, but one of the simpler ways of doing that is to let javascript do it. now this is not the most secure way to administer passwords and members, but it does work, just aslong as your not worried too much about security!

go to http://www.pageresource.com/ and check out the section on password scripts, it should be useful, it will give step by step insructions on getting some of these to work.
