Hi, I'm not sure that you can password a specific page (maybe if you use a php script this may be possible) but if you put that page into a new sub-directory I believe that you an set up a password system on that, through you control panel.

Someone really clever will be by soon - they may have more to offer!

Good answer Amanda....In Cpanel create a sub dir called team or whatever
and password protect that dir.

Rename your team page to index and publish to public_html/team

Change the link to your new page as http://yourdomainname/team

Now When anyone hits that link, a user and password box will open...

You can then delete your old team page from your public dir......

Yes. Well spotted. He was, of course, just testing you.

Keep your links simple, as I demonstrated in my example.
That also applies to sub dir names......

Why make it hard for yourself ????

edit: you need an index page in your sub dir.....hence the example.

have fun
