Really easy jscript login

[laston]

Hey. I can't do asp so i've done a really simple javascript login. However you can simply type in the url of where the login takes you. I need a way so that when you type in the members area url it takes you to the login page.

Can't you do an 'OnPageLoad' or whatever it is (on the member's area page) and then if the password is correct, load the page. Sorry, I know nothing about javascript.

Also, I wouldn't advise using a javascript login form as the username and password is very likely to be included in the <head> section of your page source which is very insecure.

Have you got an ASP host? Because somebody can probably point you in the right direction of using ASP to create your desired form.

when you link to the members area, have it create a brand new document and give it a secret handle. Then before the members page loads, have it check the name and if its wrong, just redirect them.

Try going to, http://24.16.245.89/about.htm/ . Because the handle is wrong, it goes straight to the homepage (and takes the file into account when loading the frame).

If someone really wanted to, they could get around it, but not an average viewer.

EDIT: crap, my IIS is down AGAIN! That redirector wont work because I cant run asp apparently.

what about php? can u run PHP, cuz u can make a good login script with that too.

Yeah I've tried a asp login but it says post method not allowed when i try to login. I'll look into php.
It Says:

Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /vt_auth/default.asp.

You can use the GET method and Request.QueryString().
