I am new to the JSP scene. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I've written a bean that handles a database connection and the queries to the
database. I use a form to allow the user to type in their username and password.
When they hit the "login" button to submit the form the next page sets the username
and password in the database bean. However this page shows the parameters in the URL
in the browsers "Location" window.

If someone looks over my shoulder as I log in they would see my password. Is there a
slicker way to allow a user to login.
I thought I could use javascript to setUser and setPassword in my database bean in
the "onclick" event of the form's login button, but I don't know how to reference the
bean from javascript.
Thanks in advance for your help.
