Password Protection Validation Message

[Dave]

Hello:

I need to password protect a certain page from within my
web site. I added a password field to the form on my home
page (http://www.sliaa.com/default2.htm) and set the
validation so that your are required to enter a specific
password (in this case, sliaa).

It works great, except that when you don't enter the right
password, you get an error message that tells you what you
need to enter (thereby rendering the password futile).

How can I change the verbiage in the message to simply say
something to the effect of 'Please enter correct
password'? Instead f revealing to people what we are
trying to keep from them.

Thanks,

Dave

You can't use just a form and password field to protect pages
