Do you mean to keep someone from accessing stuff on the server? Bear in mind that most things used by the browser in its job have to be accessible to the browser. That's essentially anyone. You may introduce authentication measures, with or without secure http. Try not to panic, so you'll be able to describe your goals.

Well, you could do this a few ways. One, you could create a .htaccess file for username and password prompts. This would easily protect certain areas of your site. You can read a comprehensive guide here.
Second, you could use PHP (or, some variant) and MySQL to create a login page. Though, assuming your skill level as n00b, I would choose the first option.

Check out .htaccess and .htpasswd. A quick Google found this, among many others:

If you have Cpanel on your hosting you could always go to Password Protected Directories and get it from there..

Get what? Javascript? Please let this inane thread die its rightful death.

It wasn't the mis-wording. This fellow has been asking all over the forum for Javascript to protect his site from those dastardly source-copiers . It ainna gonna happen. While we aren't sure we convinced Copernicus' enemies that the earth did indeed circle around the sun, we felt we had made some minor headway and buried a skunk that was stinking to high heaven.
