Re: [phplib] Hybrid login form? From: Patrick Durusau (pdurusau <email protected>)

Carl,

I recently started using PHPLIB for user authetication so this may not be the
best solution but...;

I edited the loginform.ihtml file to contain the content for the public homepage
of my website. It has header and footer by PHP includes, some static content and
the following:

<form action="<?php print $this->url() ?>" method=post>
<table border=0 bgcolor="#eeeeee" align="left" cellspacing=0 cellpadding=4>
<tr valign=top align=left>
<td>Member ID:</td>
</tr>
<tr>
"])) print $this->auth["uname"] ?>" size="8" maxlength="8"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align=left><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login now"></td>
</tr>
</table>

 <?php global $userid; if ( isset($userid) ): ?>
 <!-- failed login code -->

 <p><font color=red><b>Your Member ID is invalid.</b></font> Please contact
our membership service at: <contact info omitted> to renew your membership.<br>

 <?php endif ?>

</form>

Once a member executes the login, the "real" home page with protected content
for members only is displayed.
