@felgallJun 24.2006 — #Javascript would be the only language that could handle that for you.

@bokehJun 24.2006 — #Why would a login form need such a feature? Why would you send someone a form and then submit it before they had a chance to enter any data. Sounds fishy to me!

@drhart4000authorJun 24.2006 — #i have a web site with email forwarding and free ""gmail"". i own the domain cateyepro.com, and to host with godaddy and and pay for email adds up to be a bit mutch. so i decided to work with gmail. so i have an account named [email][email protected][/email] and this forwards to [email][email protected][/email] but on my website i want to be able to login with webmaster instade of webmaster.cateyepro on my webpage. (i have a gmail login section on my site) so i maid a way of processing the login at my site. now i just need to do the login to gmail. so i figured the best way would to make another gmail login and store the username and passwd and autosubmit it. but i cant figure out how to do this. I dont really know javascript i'd like to doit in php but if any one can show me how to do this in any coding id be very greatfull

Thanks,

@felgallJun 24.2006 — #Events are handled by the browser so you can't do it server side unless you first manually submit the form to request server side processing.

To autosubmit the first form on the page when the page finishes loading add the following to the head of the page.

&lt;script.type="text/javascript"&gt;
 function init() {
 document.forms[0].submit();
 }
 window.onload = init;
 &lt;/script&gt;

@bokehJun 24.2006 — #onload waits for the whole document to load (including images) before applying any Javascript. If you place the following right after your form the document will not have to be fully loaded.[code=php]<script type="text/javascript">document.forms[0].submit();</script>[/code]

@SheldonJun 25.2006 — #Rather than an auto submit which does sound a "different" way to do it.

Why dont you just log in wiht webmaster and add the other credentials in to your post data?

[code=php]
 $username = $_POST['username']; //webamaster
 $username = $username . "[email protected]";
 //[email protected]
 
 if($username = "gmailuser"){ // good
 //run gmail login
 }else{
 //bad
 }
 [/code]
