Hi all,
Does anyone have a good well rounded database driven login routine?
I have a request to build a site that the client doesn't want anyone to have access to that does not have a username and password. I would like to put the login routine on the "home" page, have it do a look up in an online database and allow or deny access to the /acatalog directory.
I was going to do it with simple basic auth for the /acatalog directory, but I would think that would choke the cgi scripts and the like. Also doing it that way would mean the client would first have to authenticate the user on the host side and provide login instructions.
He is looking for a "membership" fee to be paid through paypal, and upon the membership being paid to autogenerate an email with the requested username and password.
IE:
Name:
Address:
City, State, ZIP:
Login Name desired:
Password Desired:
Security Question (to retrieve lost password)
Membership Fee: $5.00
PayPal Link to pay.
--------> Go to paypal, initiate payment, return to login screen with accepted or denied, then autorespond with username and password upon successful paypal payment.
Hope you guys get the drift. My fingers are worn to the nub this morning.
I am really looking for some sort of canned Login Routine that could be easily modified to suit.
Thanks
Eagle
