RE: Password dialogue for a website?
If you are creating a web site, then you have a web server running. Which one? I don't know about IIS, but with Apache you can control access to every directory using .htaccess file, where you enter access privileges. Apache then takes automatically care of asking passwords etc.

RE: Password dialogue for a website?
not sure aout the other response the link seems to relate to another thing altogether You need to have a server side scripting language installed php or asp and the password needs to be in a file on the server. The code in web pages runs on the machine that downloads the page (and so you view it) if you don't have a server side language people can see the code and get round or see the password. With a server side language you can only see the output of the code and not the code itself
