... folder based passwords ... I know there are lots of ways to do this with typical html panashe. I'm looking for really cool ideas that use the power of Zope to keep this really simple. The semi-obvious is to make the first-time-access password a property of the folder. Its the remembering you've been there before and automatically letting you back in that we are after via a database record (preferred) or a cookie. I would use a SiteAccess AcessRule for the respective folders (or a custom folder with either a custom "__before_publishing_traverse_hook__" or a custom "__bobotraverse__"). It would check the necessary preconditions for folder access and raise an exception (maybe "Redirect" exception), when they are not fulfilled.
