I need to add a basic level of security onto a web login form to allow a user to proceed onto another page. Is there a way of doing this easily? I do not need a large amount of security, although encryption would be preferential, I'm not sure if PHP would be the best way to go. So far all I have is this (with styling removed):

```
<html>
<form name="input" action="" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
 User ID: <input type="text" name="user" tabindex="1"><br>
 Password: <input type="password" name="password" tabindex="2">
 <input type="submit" value="Login" tabindex="3">
</form>
</html>

```

Thanks for any feedback.
