Login Box Troubles

[brianjw]

Hi Guys,

I am trying to put a login box on a php page outside of SMF. However, I am not wishing to do it with the ssi_login function.

I've got the code for the external page, here it is:

Code Select Expand


<?php
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
        {
echo '<form>
<label>Hello, ', $context['user']['name'], '</label>
<font color="white" size="-1">Your current actions are limited on this website, ', $context['user']['name'], '</font>
<br class="spacer" />
</form>';
}
else
{
echo '
<form action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post" accept-charset="UTF-8" onsubmit="hashLoginPassword(this, \'625ca73a6555dbbe2979eabefe27518c\');">
<label>Members Login:</label>
<input type="text" name="user" id="username" />
<input type="password" name="passwrd" id="pass" />
<input type="image" src="images/login-btn.gif" class="login-btn" alt="Login" title="Login" />
<br class="spacer" />
</form>';
} 
?>

And SSI.php and the globals are of course included at the top of the page:

Code Select Expand


<?php
require("/home/**/public_html/**/community/SSI.php");
// The Login System
global $context;
global $scripturl;
?>


Ok. That entire code looks 100% correct to me. Here is my issue:

The form logs into SMF like it should and it directs to the homepage of the forum...

• How can I get it to login, but stay on the current page.
  
  When I go back to the external page logged in to SMF, it still shows the login box instead of the user info it should show. I go back to the forum to make sure I am still logged in and I am.
  
  This has me greatly confused.
  
  If I need to use SSI in order to do everything I want, then tell me how I can:
  
  1.) Make the login box look how it does with the HTML/php code:
  
  
  2.) Make the login box use the css that it needs to use:
  
  
  3.) Use the submit button, as an image instead of a button as seen in the code above.
  
  Thanks in advance, guys.

It looks like you are happy to edit files, why not edit that login function at the SSI.php level to incorporate your design requirements?

Code Select Expand

// Shows a login box.
function ssi_login($redirect_to = '', $output_method = 'echo')
{
global $scripturl, $txt, $user_info, $context;

if ($redirect_to != '')
$_SESSION['login_url'] = $redirect_to;

if ($output_method != 'echo' || !$user_info['is_guest'])
return $user_info['is_guest'];

echo '
<form action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post" accept-charset="', $context['character_set'], '">
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" class="ssi_table">
<tr>
<td align="right"><label for="user">', $txt['username'], ':</label>&nbsp;</td>
<td><input type="text" id="user" name="user" size="9" value="', $user_info['username'], '" /></td>
</tr><tr>
<td align="right"><label for="passwrd">', $txt['password'], ':</label>&nbsp;</td>
<td><input type="password" name="passwrd" id="passwrd" size="9" /></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><input type="hidden" name="cookielength" value="-1" /></td>
<td><input type="submit" value="', $txt['login'], '" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>';
}
