Password Protecting a Directory

[JCE]

Does anyone know a good tutorial on how to do this WITHOUT using .htaccess and .htpasswd ? My webhosts do not allow this file type to be uploaded.

the best way is it use PHP. Use the AUTH_HTTP module, thats a very easy one (google it) but if you want a more user friendly version you could use AUTH_MDB2. To display directorys, as far as I know you need Linux hosting.

Thanks. I will look into these. I'm not sure what my web hosts are running-- but I'll know if it's Linux if I try this and it works! Thanks again!
