Thank you for acquiring this free version of the Java password protection
system for web site. If you like this system or would want to have
more features, all you need to do is to register this software 
to receive more new and cool features.

READ "whatsnew.txt" to find out more!

IMPORTANT : 
	Please place a link from your page to mine so that others can get
	this free Java Password Program. Cut and Paste the following html
	tags on the web page where the password applet is.

	<!-- BEGIN CUT -->
	<p align=center>
	<a href="http://web.singnet.com.sg/~chrissam/appletma.htm">
	Get Your Free Password System HERE.</a></p>
	<!-- END CUT -->

Instructions :

1. Copy these files to your WWW directory on your WWW server which
   contains the page, eg "index.html", where the applet is to be displayed.
   - "password.class"
   - "okbutton.class"
   - "mytextfield.class"

   - "login.htm" - A sample html file that contains the neccessary applet tags.


   Eg. If the applet is to be displayed in the file "index.html"
       located under the "public_html" WWW directory, then the above
       mentioned files - password.class and so on - should be copied to
       the "public_html" directory.

2. Paste the following text onto the portion of your html file, 
   eg. "index.html", where you want to display the password 
   applet. CHANGE THE APPLET PARAMETERS WHERE APPLICABLE.
   
<!-- begin copy of applet to your html file-->
   <table border="4" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="40%">
   <tr><td align="center" width="100%">
   <applet code="password.class" width=250 height= 32>                           
   <param name="baseurl" value="http://yourhost/yourdir")          
   <param name="bgcolor" value="000000">
   <param name="fgcolor" value="ffffff">
   <param name="postfix" value=".htm">   
   </applet>
   </td></tr></table>
<!-- end copy of applet   -->

IMPORTANT : In case when the applet does not display correctly, try to
            by changing the applet width and height values as well as
            the table width value. This will happen when your monitor
            resolution is different.

baseurl : the base URL where your secret/protected HTML file is kept.
          Eg. Suppose you want to protect your page secret.html kept in your
  	      "public_html/gallery" directory, then the baseurl would be
 	      "http://yourhost/gallery". And the password should be "secret".
	  DO NOT PLACE A '/' AT THE END OF YOUR BASEURL
	  i.e. "http://yourhost/gallery/". otherwise you will not be able to 
	  access your protected web page.

bgcolor : Specify the background color of the applet. Format is in Hexadecimal
	  format i.e. "RRGGBB". R - Red, G- Green, B - Blue. If you are unsure 
 	  of this color coding scheme, please look at any HTML guides for a 
	  detailed explanation.

fgcolor : Specify the foreground (text) color of the applet. The color coding 
	  scheme is same for bgcolor.

postfix : Specify the file extension of the protected web page name. 
 	  Eg. If the filename of the web page is "secret.html", then the
	      postfix value should be ".html".

IMPORTANT : THE PASSWORD IS THE FILENAME(without the extensions) OF THE
	    SECRET/PROTECTED WEB PAGE.
	    IF YOU WANT TO PROTECT THE PAGE "SECRET.HTML" LOCATED IN YOUR 
  	    BASEURL, THEN THE PASSWORD IS "SECRET" and the postfix is set to 
	    ".html".

NOTE: If your applet does not appear as normal, you may want to 
adjust the height and width of the applet accordingly.
