I'll take the easy one... #3: instead of: <input type="TEXT" name="password"> use <input type="PASSWORD" name="password"> Cal http://www.calevans.com -----Original Message----- From: Marc Bragg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2001 11:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] help on modifications / subscribe / unsubscribe script Am using the following subscribe/unsubscribe script with great success, but it does not have all the functionality I would like. Any one have any ideas on how to: 1. open in a java window, and once info is put, and person is subscribed, java window closes and a selected http page comes up? 2. compare information submitted in this table, with same variable in another table, and if data is not there, then include it? 3. make the password show up as ***** characters in the browser rather than the lettters typed by user, and add a portion of script to compare to what is in database, and if there, is it correct. 4. how to add minute and seconds to date stamp.
