I have a dynamic site to develop using PHP and there will be an admin section for the site owners which will let them upload new content/items to the database hence the dynamic reason for the site.
I'm not sure what way I will protect the admin pages from public access. For example if I have those pages on the server, I need to know whats the best way to restrict access to them so some idiot can't check the server folders to discover and use these pages or is it a case of implementing a login function etc into the admin php page?
I haven't covered this area before so some guidance would be welcome.
