Ok, I am here again - stuck as usual. help required on the following please;

2. how can I limit access to parts of my site, ie via a password.

so long as you've uploaded the document to your website (how depends on your ISP but you need some kind of FTP) yes.
don't know about the password - i think it requires some kind of secure server.
you can however get hit counters of all kinds from various freebie sites; i usually start at the free site. Sorry don't have the URL but i'm away from my home PC, however if you go to my site (see signature[oops! not there - www.thriveunderpressure.com]) and use the non-medical links page it shouls be there.

Make sure you upload all the files associated with the report page.  ISTR that Word creates a direc tory with a lot of nonsense in it when it saves as a web page (but I could be wrong)

For a counter, as Wifey says, a quick Google ought to find you a simple free one.

As far as the password protection goes, a lot depends on the hosting company.  You may be able to set up a .htaccess file (again, a quick Google ought to find you some instructions), this will give you the standard browser log-in box.

If your host doesn't support this type of file, then you may be able to find a Javascript alternative at one of the free sites.  

Sorry.. not a great deal of help, I know. :?
