Hi all,

i would like to know your opinion.

We are designing a small application with OpenLazslo. It is our first Project with this framework and so far everything went fine. The learning curve is quite good ;)

Naturally our app has an login component. The common user is used to have an password manager, eg. the one built into his browser, to deal with his login name and his password. If we compile to flash this doesn't work, of course. Given we ability to compile to DHTML my idea was to split the application, compile the login component to DHTML and have the ability that password manager can deal with the login and after authentication present the user a fine flash app.

This was the thought, but the javascript that gets compiled builds the login fields out of DIVs, and so the password manager doesn't recognize the elements and does not jump in.

I know, the workaround is to build the login with normal HTML and embed the app. But i would like to concentrate GUI development on one platform and OL seems to be a very good choice.

First: Is this done on purpose to discourage the use of password managers?
Second: Is there a way to compile a Password Manager friendly DHTML component out of an LZX file? Third: Is someone willing to change the compilation process for DHTML to something that supports for password managers? Since i cannot do it myself in a resonanle timeframe. Apart from not knowing if this is wanted at all. It is possible you are quite happy with the things as they are, which i could understand completely ;)

I am anxious to hear your opinions.

Kind regards,
