CSS decision, authentication

• In at 00:00, but did an hour and a half earlier
• I think I'm going to give up on trying to make those boxes dynamic. If I change the width of the content box and forget them, so be it.
• Took awhile to get the text inside those boxes to be white in NS4.
• Proofread desktoppublishing and uploaded it.
• Checked everything in
• Tried some basic authentication on my site. Can't seem to get it to work. Posted message to Powweb forums
• Posted another message asking for pointers to scripts to help maintain the password file.
• It occurs to me that I probably need a database that links the users in the password file to a name, email address and a customer ID into the JCI database
• Found some password manager sites:
  • CGI-World (really like this one)
  • WebWorkzWare (these guys have a forum)
  • SimplyTheBest CGI scripts
  • PHPAuth on Sourceforge
  • PHP Resource Index
  • SoftwareFolder.com
  • mycgiscripts.com
• I submitted a question to CGI-World asking what's involved to interface with their code from my end. They include "custom fields" functionality that looks perfect for storing my customer lookup key.
• Giving up at 07:00
