HOW can I create password protected page in AutoPlay Media Studio 4.0 ?

Re: password

You can look here for some examples of the password applications.

http://www.indigorose.com/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=KBAMS40&Number=12419&Search=true&Forum=KBAMS40&Words=password&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=12419

I would think that if you want to password protect a page you would not have to use the global list. I guess it would depend on how many passwords you wanted to have for the page.

%Ctr% = Evaluate (3)
WHILE (%Ctr% > 0)
%EnteredText% = Dialog.GetInformation ("Attention", "Please enter your password:")
IF (%EnteredText% = "password")
Page.Jump ("passwdprotectedpage")
END IF
%Result% = Dialog.MessageBox ("Error", "The password you entered was i...", Ok|Cancel, Question)
IF (%Result% = "CANCEL")
RETURN
ELSE
%Ctr% = Evaluate (%Ctr% - 1)
END IF
END WHILE

Or something like this should work too.

Re: password

Assign the following actions to a text object or graphical button. You will want the actions to be on the "On Click" actions for the button.

**** To set this action, Click the Open the Variables tab and double click Set Value, once this opens, name your variable in the top box and in the bottom box, put the value to three. Below the box, you will need to check to box Evaluate value as expression, then click ok and you have your first action.
%Ctr% = Evaluate (3)

**** In the Control Structure action folder, double click While, type in the condition %Ctr% > 3. Then click OK. This will continue to perform the functions in the While loop while the variable %Ctr% is greater than three. You could increase or decrease the %Ctr% varialbe to allow or disallow multiple chances to enter the password.
WHILE (%Ctr% > 0)

**** In the Dialog action folder, double click Get Information. You should be able to hit OK and accept the default values.
%EnteredText% = Dialog.GetInformation ("Attention", "Please enter your password:")

**** In the Control Structure action folder, double click IF, type in the condition %EnteredText% = "password". You will need to include the " " marks and password will be the password the user will need to enter to be able to successfully navigate to the next page.
IF (%EnteredText% = "password")

**** In the Page action folder, double click Jump and select the page you want to jump to if the password is correct. If the password is not correct, it will skip the actions listed here.
Page.Jump ("passwdprotectedpage")

**** This will be added when you add the IF action above.
END IF

**** In the Dialog action folder, double click Message Box. Enter your title, something like ERROR and some text like The password you entered was incorrect, click OK to try again. In the lower left corner, choose the OK|Cancel buttons. The cancel button will give the person the option of cancelling out of the while loop.
%Result% = Dialog.MessageBox ("Error", "The password you entered was i...", Ok|Cancel, Question)

**** In the Control Structure action folder, double click IF, type in the condition %Result% = "CANCEL". This will check to see if the user hit Cancel, If they do we will perform a RETURN action which can be found in the Control Structure action folder as well.
IF (%Result% = "CANCEL")
RETURN

**** We will add an ELSE action from the Control Structure actions folder as well. This will be used if the user clicked OK instead of CANCEL. We will use the Variable actions folder and Set Value action to decrement the value of %Ctr% by one each time we go through the loop. In the actions box, set the action at the top to %Ctr% and in the control box type %Ctr% - 1. Make sure that you check the box Evaluate value as expression.
ELSE
%Ctr% = Evaluate (%Ctr% - 1)

**** This will be added when you add the IF action above.
END IF

**** This will be added when you add the WHILE action above.
END WHILE




I hope that helps.

Re: password

Here is a link to a sample file that I have made. It only checks if the password exists before it jumps to the next page. Take a look at it as this may help you to understand
