Hi Guys, i wondered if there any assistance you could do for me on this code. I have called on God many times to assist me but He did not respond. I hope you would. What I am trying to do is to allow certain users to view a certain page . I stored their names and passwords in a file.txt But the is not working is there any help?? <?php $auth = false; if (isset( $PHP_AUTH_USER ) && isset($PHP_AUTH_PW)) { $filename = 'c:\\php_data\\file.txt'; $f = @fopen($filename, "r"); if ($f != FALSE) { $a = @fread($f, filesize($filename)); fclose($f); } else { echo "Could not open file"; } $lines = explode ( "\n", $file_contents ); foreach ( $lines as $line ) { list( $username, $password ) = explode( ':', $line ); if ( ( $username == "$PHP_AUTH_USER" ) && ( $password == "$PHP_AUTH_PW" ) ) { $auth = true; break; } } } if ( ! $auth ) { header( 'WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Private"' ); header( 'HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized' ); echo 'Authorization Required.'; exit; } else { echo '<P>You are authorized!</P>'; } ?> --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
