While I've read the the FAQ on embedded logins, the examples don't quite
handle my situation.
I have several groups of users logging in from a single login page.
After their user-id and password are posted, they're regular session
cookies are set and they're redirected to their group's home page.
Only one of these groups has e-mail accounts. Since I don't know prior
to the form being posted whether or not the user has an e-mail account,
I can't simply embed the SM login script as described in the FAQ.
One possible method seems to be to skip the javascript and set the
SQMSESSID and key after I know the user belongs to a group with e-mail
accounts.
The other option seems to be to place the login javascript in the page
the group is redirected to and send the user-id and password variables
along (it's https). Since the script is looking for data posted from a
form, I'm uncertain how to modify the script to have it accept the
user-id and password variables. The truth is, while I know PHP pretty
well, I don't know javascript that well.
I've just installed SM v.1.4.6. While it's tremedously better now than
when I last used it five years ago (version 1.0.3), it's grown much
harder to modify without the fear of breaking something. I'd rather try
to hook into it than modify it.
So, should I try for a javascript solution or a session cookies solution
or . . . ?
Any suggested direction appreciated,
