Password program

[joe]

Hello, I've created a very basic program.
I ask the user for a password, the only thing I want to know is, can the user find the password without knowing it ? I mean can he look my files and see the password or should I rather use PHP ?

Thanks
Joe

Unless you are writing your files into the public folder there is no way for the user to look at them. PHP doesn't solve this better than anything else, it is just a matter of where you write your files.

So, no you do not need to use PHP. Run BASIC will work just fine.

Ok, so that's fine, I can keep my password system.
