I have a question about HTML. I know that there is this mechanism that wouldn’t allow users to get a direct access to a web-page unless they enter a password and a name. What’s the HTML code for that?

There’s a manual section in PHP describing how to output HTTP headers that force an HTTP Auth. You can’t do it with HTML alone.
http://php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php
Personally I’d prefer the
.htaccessmethod, but in the end, both do the same thing.PS: Getting pretty cold ’round here.
