creating a login screen

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 30.2009

Currently our clients access their reports via a link to a protected folder – each client has their own folder with 1 or more user logins.

I would like to add a login page to our server where the user would enter their account# and they would be redirected to mycompany.com/acct# which would then require authentication. I thought that I could use forms & get to redirect but it seems the encoding is getting in the way – cgi is not an option at this point – if anyone has any idea of how to do this using html +/or javascript it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Cyber-guys

@minondAug 30.2009 — Its all about the dom javascript; just have a function that takes the imput of the text field and then add it the the url, ex:

<script type="text/javascript">

function login() {

var num=document.getElementById("acctnum").value; //text field

window.location.assign("mycompany.com/"+num);

}

</script>


just have the login button call this function and it should do what you are looking for if i correctly understand what you need.

Success!
