Thank you. However, that item clearly states that .htaccess should not be
used for password verificiation.
What exactly is mysql? Just another type of file.
So why can't say user.txt be the database file?
I did find one site that does this, but his explanations on how to use the
code are a bit confusing.
As my server is using windows, .htaccess is kind of useless for me anyway.
