Hello NYPHP,
I know I am going to get some heat for this one but here goes...
Let me preface this by definitively stating that I am categorically
NOT making a request for information on how to hack into a system.
This is a legitimate programming problem that I am trying to solve.
I have a situation where a visually impaired user needs to pass his
username and password to a forum via a php script (preferably) for obvious
reasons he can not physically pass the info himself. He is using a text
reader software so once he is logged in to the forum at least he is able to
participate or a least read the contents of the threads.
The Forum Software provider has been pretty proactive in coding
"injection prevention" methods so passing the username and password
via a script may not be possible.
Any accessibility experts got any suggestions on how to solve this
problem.
TIA for any help.
Don't have enough information. The injection countermeasures employed by
the forum website need to be examined. In the simplest case, a Curl
request might suffice. There might be some javascript "challenge"
computation task or a captcha that would make things more difficult. If
possible, I think the easier solution would be to have his browser
"remember" the login and password. :)
