I dont know if this is in the right space but I am making a website for my band and i need the HTML code for Username and Passwords. If you can help just paste it and tell me where it goes (in between the <body></body> probably) and it would be much apprieciated ( i think i spelled that wrong)
Hmm well you seem to be looking for a language that is more advanced than HTML is you want to hold Usernames and Passwords. The HTML code that you would use would be in the 'form' tag, that will allow you to have text inputs where you can fill out the data, but if you want to be able to keep record of those names and passwords then you are going to want a coding language such as PHP/MySql or Ruby on Rails
Well if your free hosting website supports Php and Mysql (or whatever language you wish to use) then yes, but then again I have no idea what you're free host supports so that would be up to you to find out
Yes gman.. All sites use HTML... that's how you make a site. But your site's stuff is held within a server. Sortoff like a harddrive online. Some harddrives support what is called PHP and MySQL. PHP is a language to code things in, which is what most if not almost all sites use for this type of stuff. ANd MySQL is a database thing to help store stuff like usernames and passwords and such. Both tend to be needed for personal sites to make usernames passwords and other things.
It's one of those free sites so chances are you won't be able to do anything for a few reasons. One is that it's a huge site and big people like that tend to use different things that aren't PHP and mysql. Alot of the time they use ASP.net and Microsoft servers and such. Things more used for corporations. And even if it has php and mysql on it the programs won't have the clearance to be able to be used!
Here's the process this type of functionality follows:
1. HTML page contains a form that collects username and password 2. The form gets submitted to a page of another language, such as PHP or ASP 3. The receiving page checks the submitted information against the contents of a database (MySQL, MSSQL, etc) 4. The page processes the result of the database query, and either accepts or rejects the login
Following this step, usually a cookie or session is created, so that the site remembers who the user is without having them login every time they change pages.
First it needs to be in a form like this <body> <form id="form1" name="form1" method="ost" action=""> <>UserName: <input type="text" name="UserName" id="UserName" /> </p> <>Password: <input type="text" name="Password:" id="Password:" /> </p> <> <input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Log-in" /> </p> </form> </body> </html>
That will display two text fields and a "log-in" button. Then you have to validate using MySql, and PHP. Also, more coding is required in MySql to recognize it as "a log-in system"
MySql will store the info, and PHP will retrieve it trough the severs.
