places) to contain the whole login procedure and use self posting forms
for the login. This way you never leave the page you requested.
IF not logged in
IF not coming from the login form
Show the login form
Abort
IF coming from login form
Verify login
IF login not valid
Show error message
Show login form
Abort
ELSE
Flag user as logged in
For the login form, you can use a self posting form, passing any
relevant info:
<cfparam name="form.loginform_login" default="">
<form name="login_form" action=""> method="post">
<cfloop collection="#form#" item="i">
<cfif FindNoCase("loginform_",i) NEQ 1 AND i NEQ "fieldnames">
<input name="#i#" type="hidden" value="#form[i]#">
</cfif>
</cfloop>
Login: <input name="loginform_login" type="text"
value="#form.loginform_login#"><br>
Password: <input name="loginform_password" type="password" value=""><br>
<input name="loginform_submit" type="submit" value="Login">
</form>
