I have a page which requires a password to access via the drop down navigation menu. I use mySQL database to store passwords and a php script to check password. However, I can type in the full path of the protected page and it goes right to it. How do I prevent that?
Thanks

Soooo, I could have a php if/else statement that if password was correct then have an include function to load remainder of page.
Clever...
