Do yoiu want this to be a secure site?

JS isn't the task for any sort of securtiy.

What you may want is .htaccess
If you are on a Unix flavor server create a .htaccess file that looks like this

AuthUserFile /home/jdoe/public_html/goodstuff/.htpasswd
AuthName safe_stuff
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET>
require valid-user
</Limit>

The only thing you really need to change is the first line. That is a path to a .htpasswd file that has user names and passwords in this format

user assword

Can you administer the server?
What operating system is it running on?
What server side language can you use?

Try javascript.com and go to password protectors section.

You should be able to find some JavaScript that can provide a good protection!

But it just can hide a certain link, example:

password.html -> If password ok then goto fullsite.htm.
now if password was not okay the user would never guess the url of fullsite.htm

thanks for the help!.........I went to java script and I found some ok things there

ok I have just tryid and see if the code thing worked but I can't figure out where to put i............here's the code:
/********************************************************************
// Customizable Random Password Generator - 1.0
// Based On:
// http://www.phpbuilder.com/snippet/download.php?type=snippet&id=47
// Author: Digit4l [digit4l@planetquake.com]
//
// The snippet of code that this is based on does the job, but wasn't
// practical to what I needed. I reduced the code overhead immensely
// and made the snippet easier to use for newbies. To use my version
// of the snippet, just call it as: passwd();
//
// You can customize the output rather easily also. To change the
// length of the generated password, simple change the variable
// labeled $passwdlength. Currently it is set at a 15 character
// password consisting of numbers, lowercase letters, and uppercase
// letters. You can also tell it to only use certain characters by
// commenting out the appropriate $passwdkey variable.
//
// Comments can be sent via e-mail: digit4l@planetquake.com
********************************************************************/
function passwd() {
$passwdlength=15;
$passwdkey.="1234567890";
$passwdkey.="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
$passwdkey.="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
while ($passwdlength) {
$result.=substr($passwdkey,rand(0,strlen($passwdkey)),1);
$passwdlength--;
}
return($result);
}
?>

That's not JavaScript, that's PHP. And it doesn't protect anything, it only generates random passwords (i.e. when you register to some web forum, it will send you confirmation e-mail with initial random password)...
