To Create Password Protected webpage It Takes Only Two Steps:-

  1. Make a PHP file and define markup
  2. Make a CSS file and define styling

Step 1. Make a PHP file and define markup

We make a PHP file and save it with a name password.php 

<?php
session_start();

if(isset($_POST['submit_pass']) && $_POST['pass'])
{
 $pass=$_POST['pass'];
 if($pass=="123")
 {
  $_SESSION['password']=$pass;
 }
 else
 {
  $error="Incorrect Pssword";
 }
}

if(isset($_POST['page_logout']))
{
 unset($_SESSION['password']);
}
?>

<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="password_style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">

<?php
if($_SESSION['password']=="123")
{
 ?>
 <h1>Create Password Protected Webpage Using PHP, HTML And CSS</h1>
 <form method="post" action="" id="logout_form">
  <input type="submit" name="page_logout" value="LOGOUT">
 </form>
 <?php
}
else
{
 ?>
 <form method="post" action="" id="login_form">
  <h1>LOGIN TO PROCEED</h1>
  <input type="password" name="pass" placeholder="*******">
  <input type="submit" name="submit_pass" value="DO SUBMIT">
  <p>"Password : 123"</p>
  <p><font style="color:red;"><?php echo $error;?></font></p>
 </form>
 <?php	
}
?>

</div>
</body>
</html>

In this step we first check if user logged in or not by checking session variable if the user is not logged in we display login form and if user is logged in we display webpage content with logout button.

We use two isset() condition to do login or logout.In first condition we simply get the password and check if the password is '123' if yes we put the password in session variable and then display the webpage.

In second condition we simply unset the session variable which stores password value. You may also like simple http authentication using PHP .

Step 2. Make a CSS file and define styling

We make a CSS file and save it with a name password_style.css 

body
{
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 text-align:center;
 width:100%;
 font-family: "Myriad Pro","Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;
 background-color:#8A4B08;
}
#wrapper
{
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 text-align:center;
 width:995px;
}
#wrapper h1
{
 margin-top:50px;
 font-size:45px;
 color:white;
}
#wrapper p
{
 font-size:16px;
}
#logout_form input[type="submit"]
{
 width:250px;
 margin-top:10px;
 height:40px;
 font-size:16px;
 background:none;
 border:2px solid white;
 color:white;
}
#login_form
{
 margin-top:200px;
 background-color:white;
 width:350px;
 margin-left:310px;
 padding:20px;
 box-sizing:border-box;
 box-shadow:0px 0px 10px 0px #3B240B;
}
#login_form h1
{
 margin:0px;
 font-size:25px;
 color:#8A4B08;
}
#login_form input[type="password"]
{
 width:250px;
 margin-top:10px;
 height:40px;
 padding-left:10px;
 font-size:16px;
}
#login_form input[type="submit"]
{
 width:250px;
 margin-top:10px;
 height:40px;
 font-size:16px;
 background-color:#8A4B08;
 border:none;
 box-shadow:0px 4px 0px 0px #61380B;
 color:white;
 border-radius:3px;
}
#login_form p
{
 margin:0px;
 margin-top:15px;
