Security

Sep 24, 2005 6:07AM PDT

Hello i was wandering if anyone could check the security on my new site.

I have a page called familyphotos.htm and it will contain photos that i want only my family members to see so i password protected it.

Could someone check if it is hacker proof please.

Im pretty new to web design so simple please.

Thanks

Andrew

Seems secure

Seems secure, but hackers will be hackers. I don't know what your requirements are for passwords. Are they at least 8 digits and a mixture of upper and lower case and numbers?

Also there are these errors
