texte = I'm using [ListFiles] to display what is available.The files are accessible from a protected template. I basically don't want people to access them without going through the template as it logs their access etc etc and the visitor would be able to access the folder directly if I can't protect it.Are the ID & pasword passed by the browser in the header, could I reset the header to include a generic password to get them into the realm from the template? Would this be secure enough? -- Stuart TremainDigital Imaging Division The Ad-Libitum Group 48 Victoria Street North Sydney 2060 Australia Phone: +612 9959 5633 Fax: +612 9929 4146email: stuartt@adlib.com.au http://www.adlib.com.auOn Friday, 4 August 2000, Peter Ostry
