[TYPO3] password protect a single page?

[Tyler Kraft]

mmmm what about this

On a higher up page a form that asks for a code, that you then send to a 
page as part of a get or post (say entrycode=XXX). just a hand coded 
simple html form.

Then  create atemplate on teh protected page, and in it some conditional 
[globalVar = GP:entrycode = 627] that lets them see the page.

If they don't have the right code, and therefore the right get string 
the template invokes

[globalVar = GP:entrycode = 627]

[else]
	config.additionalHeaders = Location: 
http://default.netefficiency.co.uk/index.php?id=1
[global]

would that work for you?
