Desperate for password protection

I am desperate for some password protection that accesses a database for user name and password. i have searched all over the web and cannot find one that actualy works. i need to redirect to a users personal internal page on my website after the password checks out as well. any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you in advance.

You will perhaps need to use a server-side language like PHP, ASP etc etc.... Tell us which one you use.

I have been looking at php scripts but none of them actualy seem to work. i have been trying to figure this out for about 2 weeks and just came across this forum and seems like a nice group of people here.

You need to use session and cookies. You better ask OP to move this thread to PHP forums. You'll get appropriate help there.
