Howdy group! Here's something I was wondering if anyone had experience with.
If I create a login form with html that takes a username and password. What do I need to do to make a script that will take that input and log the user in to an apache .htaccess protected directory? Is it a certain format header or ??? Or would I have to use mod_perl and create a whole separate authentication scheme? I'd like to do this: 1) Html form sends user an password to login.pl 2) login.pl makes sure the info is valid and if it is sends them to http://www.domain.com/admin/ along with the authentication info. So the user's process would be this: type in info -> press submit -> Either an Error or they're in. And if they went directly to http://www.domain.com/admin/ they'd get the standard login popup form the browser. Any info would be most appreciated.
