Making a password requirement for website?

[Alogan]

Any advice on how to make a website that has a password page before entering the site would be helpful. No user name/ login stuff, just a page that has text input box that asks for a password, then admittance to the website is gained.

I'd use php to check for a certain session id on the password protected page... if they don't have that session id then you send them to the password page. They input the password, if it's correct, then you create the necessary session and redirect them back to the page they were trying to get to in the first place.

Isn't it time consuming? I mean, if that is a possible customer then he/she needs to provide a password each time he/she visits the site then chances on staying on your site would be low.

check out .htaccess for passwords i think that should be a simple fix to your problem
