upload & pass protect pdf files

I have a client that wants to upload reports in pdf and have each pass protected. So when at the webpage you enter a specific user / pass or even just a password and it will show the correct pdf for that client based on the password.

I don't know how to do it so wondering if anyone knows a pre-built script I could use or suggest a freelance site to hire someone to do it.

How much do you think it should cost?

thanks!

Various ways of doing it, depending on how safe you want to be. About the simplest is that the client uploads pdfs to a directory that also contains a plain text file mapping username/passwords to pdf names. Access would be via a get_pdf php which forced login via form or header calls and then read the plain text file and generated a link to download the appropriate pdf. php script would be about an hour's work max.

post your project, get some bids.

Amendments to your htaccess file at that folder would be a first step
