Hi,

I'm looking for a script package that will allow me to add a login 'form' to any page on a site to allow registered users to login and gain access to specific areas.

I've seen a variety of scripts that pop up a browser based login window, (as in the .htaccess mode of logining in) but I want a login that uses a webpage based form, just like the GT forum user login. I'm assuming this type of method uses cookies?

Does anyone know of a basic package that can offer this?

Any assistance greatly appreciated. Thanks.

All the best
Shaun

PS. It doesn't need to include any e-commerce capabilities

Sounds like the GT Community app (whenever it's released) will do what you want.

Use DBman... <hint: "records" can just be pointers to hidden HTML files>

Apache::htpasswd might be worth a look:

"Apache::Htpasswd - Manage Unix crypt-style password file."

Mmm but why when you can just do:

htpasswd -c .htpasswd username

Hello,

There is a solution that use JavaScript. Infact here is the script for it. Go to: http://javascript.internet.com/.../htaccess-login.html and install the javascript on your page. It will work, just enter your username and password in the form box and there you go.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestions.

The Javascript solution would be a basic workaround and I may try it but it doesn't really provide a 'membership' style feature set such as membership control, email facilities, etc., however GT Community sounds interesting so I'll keep an eye out for its release.

All the best
Shaun
