Hello stevekcn:

You are able to create a area on your website that requires a "log in" by using a password gateway that you can get for free from bravenet you can find more information about this at StudioAllen's Tips & Solutions website:

Thank for that much appreciated

Hi again, thanks for the info. I have followed the instructions you gave me re- creating a password protected area on my site. I have uploaded the login in code and linked it to my web page and the password works. The only problem is when the log in page pops up it has the codes visable.

 any advice

Thanks 

Since you didn't provide a URL to the problem I can only guess, by code you mean the code of login page (bravenet code)?  Did you use MS Word?  You need to use Notepad, MS Word just displays the code.

                       i was wondering how i could get the website to display the user ID and logout button.

                           HEADER                                                                         HEADER

                                                     LOG IN                                                           USER ID: ubty Position: Admin LOG OUT

HOME         INFOjhssjfjsd                                        HOME              ahgfhjughuhdgujdf

                   kfigdfsijfdgigdfik                                     EMAIL             fsdfs

                                                        can you or someone else hellp me? :)

You can have a loggout button, but no I don't think there is a way to display a user id or at least not dynamically.
