Password to Reveal Link

mkjones · 04-16-2012, 08:10 PM

I'm looking for some HTML coding to help me with a problem. I want to have viewers enter a password into a box and then, assuming they enter the correct password and click OK, then it will reveal a link which they can then click on. If they don't enter the correct password, then the link will not be shown. I don't need to password protect a page, just password "protect" the link.

What server side language do you have available to do this with?

You're going to hate me, because you're already talking over my head. I use the site wix.com and have created an HTML5 page. It's mostly a WYSIWYG type of creation tool, but they allow HTML/JAVA wigits to be added. I've been searching the web for some code to just cut and paste, but nothing seems to fit extactly. I'd even be willing to pay a few $ for someone to create a little code. It just need to have a one-line form that says "password" and then if the person enters the correct password and clicks 'OK' then a link appears (or by clicking OK it can directly take the person to the page. I just don't want people seeing the link without entering the password. (I understand that someone could go to the link if they knew the URL, but I'll accept the risk).
