--------------------------------------
Summary: Web connector session-based login needs more power to
distinguish between multiple forms
Key: CONNECTORS-574
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-574
Project: ManifoldCF
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 1.0.1, ManifoldCF 1.0
Reporter: Karl Wright
Assignee: Karl Wright
Fix For: ManifoldCF 1.1
Setting up a session-based login sequence requires a user to be able to
uniquely describe a desired set of pages that set up cookies. Specifically,
the pages must be one of the following types:
- Containing a form of a specific name
- Containing a link with a specific target
- Containing a redirection with a specific target
Modern login pages often contain many forms, however, and they can be generated
by other software. In that case the forms often are identified by use of an
"id" attribute rather than a "name".
I've also seen situations where pages in login sequences are redirected through
Javascript, and therefore it is difficult to write a rule that matches such
pages, since there are no obvious links or forms either. It would be great to
find a solution to that - maybe a lowest-priority "match everything" button
selection would help.
