Hi There,
I need to password protect a page on my site. It only needs one login and
password, not one per person.
Any ideas, or where should I look for help?
 
You can create a sub web (sub site) with that page and then under Tools,
Security Permissions, set the sub web to have Unique Permissions from the
root and assign a user name and password to it but don't allow anonymous
access. You may need to have your web host set up a password protected sub
web for you as some don't allow you to so it yourself.

See
Password Protect Part of a Web: (Requires FrontPage extensions on server,
and host must support subwebs with unique permissions)

Protect individual pages: (Requires Windows Server with support for ASP
and Access database)

Or you could use server-side scripting and a database to do this. See
http://www.kamath.com/tutorials/tut003_auth.asp for an example.
